Given the seriousness of the proposal, more than 70 civil society organizations submitted<br \/>\ncomplaints this Monday, April 27, to the UN and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.<\/p>\n<p>The organizations, formed by jurists and experts on the prison system, are asking the UN and the IACHR to take measures to stop the use of containers to hold prisoners in Brazil. These containers do not have adequate ventilation, they expose prisoners to high temperatures and they violate the principle of human dignity, by exposing detainees to degrading treatment.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0<strong>Read the urgent appeal submitted to the<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/conectas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Apelo-Urgente-container-.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">UN<\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/conectas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Carta-41-container.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">OAS<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The request submitted to the CNPCP asks for the suspension of the Basic Guidelines for Prison Architecture in order to permit the creation of new places in containers for prisoners in the risk group, for infected prisoners with minor symptoms and as temporary facilities for medical treatment. In the request by Depen, it says these structures could \u201cremain a legacy for prison units\u201d, including for triage and temporary admission of prisoners.<\/p>\n<p>According to the organizations, the proposal expands the state of confinement by limiting outdoor recreation, air circulation and contact with any environment outside the container.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn spite of previous cases of gross violations that include the case of Altamira, when prisoners died from burns and asphyxiation and the incident was described as cruel and inhumane treatment by the Superior Court of Justice, this new Resolution is already scheduled for tomorrow,\u201d said the organizations in the document submitted yesterday to the UN and the OAS. \u201cIn this regard, we stress the urgency of
