Prisons concentrate people with multiple vulnerabilities who are exposed to violations of human rights, without any exception, including Switzerland. Independent monitoring bodies play an important role in preventing ill-treatment in detention. The most effective monitoring body worldwide is the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT), which bases its work on a European Convention that guarantees unrestricted access to detention facilities and all documents, including medical documents, in the member states of the Council of Europe. This article summarizes the main recommendations made by the CPT during its most recent visits to Switzerland, with a focus on prisons in French-speaking Switzerland, and also presents its workings in relation to the visits.
监狱集中关押着众多易受伤害的人，他们毫无例外地遭受着人权侵犯，瑞士也不例外。独立监督机构在防止拘留期间的虐待行为方面发挥着重要作用。全球最有效的监督机构是欧洲防止酷刑委员会（CPT），其工作依据的是一项欧洲公约，该公约保障在欧洲委员会成员国能够不受限制地进入拘留设施并查阅所有文件，包括医疗文件。本文总结了CPT在其最近一次访问瑞士期间提出的主要建议，重点关注瑞士法语区的监狱，并介绍了其与这些访问相关的工作情况。
