The procedure \u2013 for which the government of Argentina was recently condemned by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the OAS (Organization of American States) \u2013 is performed by prison guards in various Brazilian states when people visit their imprisoned relatives, under the allegation of barring the entry of weapons, drugs and mobile phones into prisons.<\/p>\n<p>Data compiled by the Public Defender\u2019s Office, however, reveal that prohibited items were found on visitors in just 0.02% of cases. According to Conectas, \u201cit is clear that this abusive practice is used as another form of punishment against the prisoners, extending the sentence to people who have never been convicted of any crime. This is not conducive to the reintegration of prisoners into society. In contrast, it fuels a sense of indignation, animosity and hatred\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The so-called \u201coppressive search\u201d was denounced by Conectas to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva last week and is the topic of the latest <u><a href=\"https:\/\/conectas.org\/arquivos\/editor\/files\/Informativo_JusticaCriminal_6_2014.pdf\">newsletter of the Criminal Justice Network<\/a><\/u>.
