Blatant violation of law in Dochas Centre prison in Dublin – ON WHOSE COMMAND? – WHO is so scared of losing?

Martha’s correspondance with the attorney is supervised – unlawfully.
It’s a violation of European Prison Rules, that Ireland supposedly wishes to respect.

It even came to exceptional ignorance regarding the law, a gross violation of the law.
Martha’s letter from her attorney, was copied after opening, and then it was given to Martha for signing.
Martha unnecessarily signed the copy.
The officers took the copy from her.

It happend at least twice.
Every time the copy was taken by a different prison officer.

Is it a coincidence, that the copies were taken by the two officers, who don’t even hide their hate towards Martha?

On whose command the prison officers acted?
WHO is so interested in the contents of Martha’s correspondence with the attorney?
WHO is so afraid of losing in Supreme Court, that he wants to know all the steps taken in Martha’s defense?

Martha’s sister is preparing official report of violation of law, which will be submitted to relevant institutions in Ireland.

In Martha’s family’s opinion, the case of Martha was “supervised” on every stage, so that “proper” sentence would be issued.
Today SOMEONE is still highly interested in so that nothing would change in the verdict.

In the brochure “Know Your Rights. Your Rights as a Prisoner“, published by the Irish Council for Civil Liberties and the Irish Penal Reform Trust, rights of a prisoner in Ireland were clearly presented.

About the correspondence, which can not be supervised it is written:

“Can I send any letters which will not be inspected?
Yes. Letters to certain organisations or bodies will not be opened before they are sent and will be posted without delay. These include letters to:

  • your solicitor (legal advisor),
  • the Minister for Justice,
  • the Prison Visiting Committee,
  • the Inspector of Prisons,
  • the European Court of Human Rights,
  • the Irish Human Rights Commission,
  • the Parole Board,
  • the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT), and
  • the International Red Cross.

Incoming mail from your solicitor or any of the organisations or bodies listed above will only be opened to make sure that it is from your solicitor or one of the listed organisations. If any letter addressed to you is to be examined, it must be opened while you are there.” (bolded by us).

 

What laws regarding the prisoners Ireland has agreed to respect? – Does Dochas Centre prison in Dublin follows those rules?

“Ireland has agreed to follow the terms of four international treaties (agreements) which lay out standards for the treatment of prisoners.
These are:

  • • the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR);
  • • the Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment from the Council of Europe;
  • • the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR); and
  • • the United Nations Convention against Torture (CAT).

The Council of Europe’s European Prison Rules are also important. Although they are not the law, they give important guidance on high standards for prisons.”
