The Commission's lawyer confirmed, after her recent visit to Damoun Prison, that the prison administration has tightened its grip on female detainees. The room, which can accommodate five detainees, contains 10 detainees, in light of the very high temperatures and the withdrawal of fans, and the jailers also deliberately close the small window opening on t he doors of the departments.
