PRISON SOCIETY IN THE CONTEXT OF HUMAN RIGHTS

Summary/Abstract: Terms such as prisoner/detainee, prisoner/detainee community, human rights have their own legal definitions, and in this paper we will try to answer the question: Is the European Convention against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading punishments and procedures against persons deprived of liberty respected in prison societies in Bosnia and Herzegovina? In the first part of the work, we will present the problem of detention units in Bosnia and Hrecegovina and the world in a synthetic way. In the following parts, an assessment of the status of prisoners is provided by analyzing the Report on the results of the activities of the Institution of Ombudsman for Human Rights of Bosnia and Herzegovina for the year 2021.
