The court allowed not to conduct hot water to the colony in the Komi due to the rules of 50 years ago

The Komi prosecutor’s office is trying to achieve the appearance of hot water in the penalty area of the colony No. 31, but the Federal Penitentiary Service resists this in the courts. One of the courts, making a decision, was guided by the rules that were created 46 years ago. The North. Reali on the basis of messages of the prosecutor's office of the republic tells how this happens.

The Syktyvkar prosecutor, who monitors compliance with the laws in correctional institutions, during the audit in colony No. 31 discovered that there is no hot water supply in the penalty area (schizo). He went to court and demanded that the colony administration be obliged to conduct water in a schizo. In July 2019, the Ust-Vovsky District Court agreed with the position of the prosecutor's office and satisfied the lawsuit.

But the Federal Penitentiary Service did not agree with the decision and appealed him in the Komi Supreme Court. The court, considering the case, came to the conclusion that the premises of the insulator were built when the norms of 1973 were in force - they had an optional supply of hot water to the washbasins. The Supreme Court of the region in September canceled the decision of the district court.

The prosecutor's office appealed this in the third cassation court. The department in the complaint indicated that people have the right to a favorable habitat, including in the colony. The rules for the design of correctional institutions indicate that hot water should be connected to all buildings of the colony. And if it is not, then this violates the right of convicts to "proper ensuring their life." In IK-31 there are hot water supply pipes, to which you can connect washbasins in a schizo. The prosecutor's office indicated that the colony administration did not offer an alternative way to supply hot water to the camera.

In December 2019, the court admitted that the arguments of the prosecutor’s office were justified, and canceled the decision of the Komi Supreme Court. The case was sent for a new consideration.
