Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 20 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | Women are at particular risk of torture and ill-treatment during pretrial detention because sexual abuse and violence may be used as a means of coercion and to extract confessions. A majority of female detainees worldwide are first-time offenders suspected of or charged with non-violent (drug- or property-related) crimes, yet are automatically sent to pretrial detention. In many States the number of women held in pretrial detention is equivalent to or higher than that of convicted female prisoners, and women are held in pretrial detention for extremely long periods (A/68/340). Women in pretrial detention facilities - which are typically not built or managed in a gender-sensitive manner - tend not to have access to specialized health care and educational or vocational training. They face higher risks of sexual assault and violence when they are held in facilities with convicted offenders and men or are supervised by male guards. According to the Committee against Torture, the undue prolongation of the pretrial stage of detention represents a form of cruel treatment, even if the victim is not detained (A/53/44). | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 41 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | While trafficking is perpetrated primarily by private persons, public officials actively acquiesce in or facilitate trafficking operations, for instance by accepting bribes or inducements and certifying or ignoring unlawful working conditions. Furthermore, whenever States fail to exercise due diligence to protect trafficking victims from the actions of private actors, punish perpetrators or provide remedies, they are acquiescent or complicit in torture or ill-treatment (A/HRC/26/18). This is particularly the case whenever the conduct is systematic or recurrent such that the State knew or ought to have known of it and should have taken steps to prevent it, including criminal prosecution and punishment. States must implement a combination of measures to combat trafficking, of which the duty to penalize and prosecute is just one. In designing measures to protect, support and rehabilitate victims of trafficking, States must consider the age, gender and special needs of victims with a view to protecting women and children from revictimization. The criminalization and detention of trafficking victims for status-related offences and "protective" purposes can also amount to ill-treatment. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Children deprived of their liberty from the perspective of the prohibition of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 2015, para. 49 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | Children deprived of their liberty are often not allowed to maintain regular contact with their families and friends, because either they are denied contact as a form of punishment or are placed in facilities located far away from their homes and families. A lack of vocational, educational and recreational activities for children deprived of their liberty creates situations of risk of abuse and ill-treatment. When children spend most of their time confined in their cells, they may experience a lack of motivation and even depression, which in turn can leads to incidents of abuse and violence between children or with staff members. The Special Rapporteur wishes to point out that, while lack of activities is detrimental for any prisoner, it is especially harmful for children, who have a particular need for physical activity and intellectual stimulation. This is also true for children detained with their mothers in prison. During country visits, the Special Rapporteur has observed that women's section of prisons often show inadequate space for women with children and a lack of well-equipped recreation areas for children (see A/HRC/22/53/Add.2, para. 58). | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Certain forms of abuses in health-care settings that may cross a threshold of mistreatment that is tantamount to torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 2013, para. 76 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) has concluded that homophobic ill-treatment on the part of health professionals is unacceptable and should be proscribed and denounced. There is an abundance of accounts and testimonies of persons being denied medical treatment, subjected to verbal abuse and public humiliation, psychiatric evaluation, a variety of forced procedures such as sterilization, State-sponsored forcible anal examinations for the prosecution of suspected homosexual activities, and invasive virginity examinations conducted by health-care providers, hormone therapy and genital-normalizing surgeries under the guise of so called "reparative therapies". These procedures are rarely medically necessary, can cause scarring, loss of sexual sensation, pain, incontinence and lifelong depression and have also been criticized as being unscientific, potentially harmful and contributing to stigma (A/HRC/14/20, para. 23). The Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women expressed concern about lesbian, bisexual, transgender and intersex women as "victims of abuses and mistreatment by health service providers" (A/HRC/19/41, para. 56). | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 83 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | The Rules should ensure that education and information regarding the prohibition against torture or other ill-treatment are included in the training of corrections personnel, whether civilian or military, medical personnel and other persons who may be involved in the custody, interrogation or treatment of any individual subjected to any form of arrest, detention or imprisonment. Medical personnel should receive specific training on the provisions contained in the Manual on the Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (2000). Training programmes should be envisaged to sensitize personnel to permissible methods and limitations for searches and steps to prevent and remedy prison violence with techniques that do not give rise to excessive use of force. Efforts should be strengthened to ensure that personnel adopt a gender-sensitive and age-sensitive approach (see the United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners) and are sensitive to the particular needs of inmates who belong to marginalized groups by, for example, providing guidance, instances and examples on principles of equality and non discrimination, including in relation to sexual orientation and gender identity (see A/HRC/19/41, para. 75). | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 77 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | The Special Rapporteur recalls that the perceived fairness of a complaints system is indeed fundamental to its effectiveness in combating impunity and promoting a safe custodial environment. Sufficient safeguards and opportunities must be in place to make a complaint and to ensure the independence, reliability, confidentiality and safety of complaint mechanisms (see, for example, the United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners, rule 25 (1)). Moreover, the right of detainees to file a complaint implies facilitating simple, prompt and effective recourse before competent, independent and impartial authorities against acts or omissions. Appropriate systems must be established to handle and process these complaints, ensuring access to independent lawyers and timely independent medical examination and guaranteeing the safety and security of the complainant. The Rules should place an obligation on prison authorities to take effective measures to protect complainants against any form of intimidation, reprisals and other adverse consequences. Measures in this regard include the transfer of the complainant or the implicated personnel to a different detention facility or the suspension from duty of the personnel. It is also important that the Rules integrate a provision obliging the personnel to guarantee the timely enforcement of any decision granting the remedy. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 54 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | Furthermore, the Rules should be reformulated to integrate principles of clinical independence and medical ethics, as well as principles of equality and non discrimination: the requirement to respect the autonomy of patients, the need for the informed consent of the person concerned (Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, art. 25 (d)) and confidentiality, including with regard to HIV testing, the reproductive health of inmates and their medical files (see the United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners, rule 8). In addition, the Rules should include an express recognition that persons deprived of liberty must always have access to adequate health care, including adequate medical, psychiatric and dental care and medication. Persons deprived of liberty should have access to a level of health care that is equivalent to that available to the general population. Currently, Rule 22 (1) already stipulates that prison health services should be organized in close cooperation with the general health administration of the community or nation, and the World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that prison health policies must be integrated into national health policies. To achieve this, prison health-care services should be integrated under the ministry of health. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Review of the standard minimum rules for the treatment of prisoners 2013, para. 49 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | The fundamental role of authorities to exercise effective control over places of deprivation of liberty and ensure the personal safety of prisoners from physical, sexual or emotional abuse should be further strengthened as one of the most important obligations (see the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-custodial Measures for Women Offenders, para. 9, and the European Prison Rules, rule 52.2). In this respect, preventive measures include increasing the number of personnel sufficiently trained in using non-violent means of resolving conflicts (see CAT/C/BGR/CO/4-5, para. 23 (c), and A/HRC/7/3/Add.3, para. 90 (t)); promptly and efficiently investigating all reports of inter-prisoner violence and prosecuting and punishing those responsible; and offering protective custody to vulnerable individuals without marginalizing them from the prison population more than is required for their protection. Given the intrusive nature of internal surveillance devices as a control and early warning mechanism, such devices should be administered by specialized security personnel trained to strike a balance between exercising security functions and treating persons with respect for their dignity, including by demonstrating respect for and being sensitive to cultural and religious diversity. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

or punishment 2016, para. 68 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | States have a heightened obligation to prevent and combat gender-based violence and discrimination against women, girls, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex persons that amount to torture and ill-treatment, committed in a variety of contexts by both State and actors. In assessing the level of pain and suffering experienced by victims of gender-based violence, States must examine the totality of the circumstances, including the victim's social status; extant discriminatory legal, normative and institutional frameworks that reinforce gender stereotypes and exacerbate harm; and the long-term impact on victims' physical and psychological well-being, enjoyment of other human rights and their ability to pursue life goals. The provision of comprehensive reparations, including monetary compensation, rehabilitation, satisfaction and guarantees of non-repetition, is essential and must be accompanied by diverse measures and reforms designed to combat inequality and legal, structural and socioeconomic conditions that perpetuate gender-based discrimination. Urgent interim reparations designed to respond to the immediate needs of victims of gender-based violence, including rehabilitation and access to physical and mental health care, should also be provided where necessary. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 63 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | A forced marriage occurs without the full and free consent of at least one of the parties or where at least one party is unable to end or leave the marriage, including as a result of duress or intense social or family pressure. Child marriages involve at least one party under 18 years of age. Seven hundred million women alive today were married before the age of 18, and 250 million before the age of 15. These harmful practices occur in every region in the world, are strongly linked to violence against women and inflict long-term physical and psychological harm on victims. They can legitimize sexual abuse and exploitation; trap women in situations characterized by domestic violence and servitude, marital rape and life-threatening early pregnancies; and affect the victim's capacity to realize the full range of her human rights. (CEDAW/C/MNE/CO/1, CRC/C/MRT/CO/2, A/HRC/26/38/Add.3). Child marriage constitutes torture or ill-treatment (CAT/C/ETH/CO/1), particularly where Governments fail to establish a minimum age for marriage that complies with international standards or allow child marriage despite the existence of laws setting the age of majority at 18 (CAT/C/YEM/CO/2/Rev.1, CCPR/C/BGR/CO/3), to criminalize forced marriage and to investigate, prosecute and punish perpetrators. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 58 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | Harmful practices are persistent practices and forms of behaviour grounded in discrimination on the basis of, inter alia, sex, gender and age, in addition to multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination that often involve violence and cause physical or psychological harm or suffering, including immediate or long-term consequences for the victim's dignity, physical and psychosocial integrity and development, health, education and socioeconomic status. Women and girls are disproportionately impacted by harmful practices. Typically justified on the basis of social norms and cultural beliefs, tradition or religion, harmful practices are motivated in part by stereotypes about sex and gender-based roles and rooted in attempts to control individuals' bodies and sexuality. Female genital mutilation, child and forced marriage and honour-based violence are acknowledged as forms of gender-based violence that constitute ill-treatment and torture. Victims seeking justice for violations of their rights as a result of harmful practices often face stigmatization and risk revictimization, harassment and retribution. States must ensure that the rights of women and girls are guaranteed and protected at all stages of the legal processes, inter alia through legal aid, support programmes and witness protection. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

In particular, the non-violent nature of crimes committed by the majority of women and girls and the minimal public risks posed by most female offenders make them ideal candidates for non-custodial sanctions. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

The prohibition of refoulement is absolute and an important additional source of protection for women, girls, and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons who fear such treatment in their countries of origin. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 18 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | A variety of obstacles to accessing justice, including poverty and discrimination, increase the likelihood of women being detained, while systematic or institutionalized societal discrimination contributes to legitimizing and replicating discrimination and violence against women and girls deprived of liberty. Women in prison face multiple forms of discrimination in accessing gender-sensitive and appropriate services across different aspects of the prison regime, such as health care, educational opportunities, rehabilitation services and visiting rights. The adoption of the United Nations Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-custodial Measures for Women Offenders (the Bangkok Rules) filled a gap in international standards by recognizing and addressing the gender-specific needs and circumstances of female offenders and prisoners. The Bangkok Rules supplement but do not replace relevant provisions in the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners (the Nelson Mandela Rules) and the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for Non-custodial Measures (Tokyo Rules). Their swift and full implementation by States would contribute significantly to reducing torture and ill-treatment against women in custody, as would gender-sensitive non-custodial measures and the consideration of gender-specific circumstances in sentencing female offenders, including in cases of women convicted of killing abusive domestic partners. | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment
or punishment 2016, para. 56 | 19 de ago. de 2019 | Paragraph | Societal indifference to or even support for the subordinate status of women, together with the existence of discriminatory laws and patterns of State failure to punish perpetrators and protect victims, create conditions under which women may be subjected to systematic physical and mental suffering, despite their apparent freedom to resist. In this context, State acquiescence in domestic violence can take many forms, some of which may be subtly disguised (A/HRC/7/3). States' condoning of and tolerant attitude towards domestic violence, as evidenced by discriminatory judicial ineffectiveness, notably a failure to investigate, prosecute and punish perpetrators, can create a climate that is conducive to domestic violence and constitutes an ongoing denial of justice to victims amounting to a continuous human rights violation by the State. In cases where States are or ought to be aware of patterns of continuous and serious abuse in a particular region or community, due diligence obligations require taking reasonable measures to alter outcomes and mitigate harms, ranging from the strengthening of domestic laws and their implementation to effective criminal proceedings and other protective and deterrent measures in individual cases. Domestic violence legislation and community support systems must in turn be matched by adequate enforcement. Special attention must be paid to religious or customary law courts that may tend to downplay and inadequately address domestic violence (A/HRC/29/40). | Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment | Special Procedures' report |
