The Parliamentary Committee on National Security is expected to start reviewing some changes to the law on prisoners' rights.
Currently, the law stipulates that a convict who has 6 months left to serve his sentence can be transferred to an open prison, but this practice is almost never implemented.
The proposed legal change states that a convicted person who has less than 2 years and 6 months of imprisonment left to serve, provided that the convicted person has secured a regular employment contract, moves to what is known as an open prison . This means that the convict goes to work in the morning and returns to the open prison in the evening.
Nasip Naço, chairman of the National Security Commission, said that the idea of proposing changes was inspired by the state budget money that is allocated every year to the General Directorate of Prisons and the annual cost of keeping a prisoner.
"We have about 5,000 convicts and remands, as many police officers in prisons and civil servants who work in the prison administration, there is one policeman for one convict. Looking at the statistics, these numbers do not apply in practice. Rehabilitation is the priority, not safety. It could be the ratio of 1 policeman to convict, 1 to 20, 1 to 60" , said Naço for "TCH".
He also stated that countries such as England, Germany, Holland, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Luxembourg, Poland, Montenegro have already applied this regime for a category of convicts, this regime has been evaluated very positively in terms of rights and liberties of convicted persons.
