Act, another dead letter

Panama America
their rights are being violated. The inmates in various prisons the country, have not had the opportunity to enforce the law establishing conjugal visits from their partner.
Act 55 of 2003 and an executive order signed by former Interior and Justice Minister Raul Montenegro, along with who was his deputy in 1997, Martin Torrijos Espino, provided an opportunity for male and female inmates in prisons the country to maintain conjugal visits.
Neither the law nor the decree has been fulfilled in the case of women, which has caused to be excluded by their partners, to the point of facing the penalty as well, abandoning their supporters at home .
For this, the Ombudsman Town discusses the violation of rules and rights of Act 55, which reorganized the prison system.
The breach has been because they were built cubicles or enclosures that are made suitable for intimate relationships, and therefore, the technical board of the Women's Rehabilitation Centre, is irrelevant.
The lack of enforcement of conjugal visits has been reflected in the separation of several women from their partners.
The case of Elizabeth
This situation is experienced firsthand Elizabeth, a 25-year-old was arrested for the crime against public health (drugs), and purged three-year sentence. His struggle to change, let him qualify for good behavior, for the curriculum and is finishing high school.
She, like many prisoners, lost his mate who was not to visit again, and this is what happens to almost all he says.
In 2005, former director of the National Penitentiary System, Jose Calderon, a trade issued by the Ombudsman's Office asking for an explanation, he replied that there were no cubicles for conjugal visits.
To Elizabeth the breach is a matter of machismo. "Just give it to men because they are" pregnant ", we can use contraceptives, to have our conjugal visits." I can tell you that over 80% have lost their partner and a small group of women prisoners has gotten lesbianism, think that if we have our conjugal visit to get pregnant and then we should take a precautionary measure, that is false. "
Processing of the Complaint
The Ombudsman's office handles a complaint for violation of human rights of detained and an investigation initiated ex officio in the country's prisons to determine the status of the prisoners and their right to conjugal visits, said Leysi Santamaria, chief program officer of prisoners.
not rule out legal action against the prison system to enforce the existing rule, as appropriate State programs for contraception.
Panama America attended a meeting to address the national prison system director, Carlos Landeros but this was not carried out.
Act 55 that allows conjugal visits, and others may be falling into a dead letter, as there are implemented in our country. Among those that are not fulfilled Resolution No. 441-R-163 issued on June 27, 1997 and signed by the Interior Minister, Raul Montenegro.Aun remains in force under Article 69 paragraph 20 of the Act and regulation 55 of this Act, through the Executive Decree 393 of July 25, 2005.
The only progress is in this matter pending for the Women's Rehabilitation Centre, Cecilia Orillac of Panama, is the request of the Office of the First Lady of the drawings and photographic views of the area for a construction project stalls for the internal receive their visitas.Actualmente the prison system only sets visits from family, friends and lawyers, as well as special permits, labor and education.
