There is no doubt that prisons are either old or new, ignore and violate the rights of prisoners to the same extent. These new
prisons of Kerala (launched in 2008) have nothing to envy of the known scattered throughout the Greek territory, hellish.
Moreover, the prison Grevena is so remote as to preclude the possibility of even basic social control, hindering the access
rights of prisoners with their own, but also with their lawyers.
Despite promises to improve conditions of detention, after the monumental struggle of prisoners in Greek prisons in November
2008 and successive bills, the prison Grevena is a shining example of law enforcement intentions of governments and their
indifference to and violation of basic rights prisoners.
On 11 January, the prisoners in jail Grevena began mass hunger strike demanding the obvious, denouncing the prison medieval
experiencing:
-The usual tactic of humiliating anal control dynastefei lives and even in a very short transfer case for medical reasons. Those
who refuse to try to protect their dignity, are closed to isolate and face disciplinary proceedings.
-Requests for permits are ignored and / or examination unacceptably slow.
-The disciplinary regime is reminiscent of the junta, and the prisoners prosecuted for anything.
-Ignored demands to be heard, even for people who face significant problems.
-There is no doctor for 330 prisoners.
-There is a Secretariat to provide information and serve the needs of prisoners.
-The times of change visiting randomized, so the detainees are deprived of the necessary contact with the outside world and
relatives who all travel to the isolated prison be located before off guard and not be able to see their loved ones who are
incarcerated.
-The proaflismos takes place in a very limited space for a very short time. In the courtyard there are fitness leisure detainees.
Heating-only there for an hour this morning.
-The prisoners are forced to buy everything, even basic necessities, the prison should provide, for example, the pillow!
-At the supermarket shop no price list, so that prisoners pay arbitrary and illegal prices.
We stand in solidarity in the struggle of prisoners
We demand the immediate satisfaction of their claims
