The Human Rights Council (HRC) under the President of Russia will draw up a report on “systemic violence” within the FSIN, in which, among measures to remedy the situation, it will be proposed to increase salaries for correctional institutions, as well as to ensure the “inevitability of punishment” for people caught in torture. About this on Friday, December 3, informs Kommersant.
The report and proposals of human rights defenders should be prepared for the annual meeting of HRC members with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which is scheduled for December 9.
The document drawn up following the inspection of Russian colonies will also be presented to the new leadership of the FSIN, Ombudsman Tatyana Moskalkova and Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov.

The council plans to check 20 penitentiary institutions from 1 to 7 December. According to her, they promised not to obstruct the council members.
