Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Optional Protocol to the UN Convention Against Torture (OPCAT) establishes an independent international monitoring committee (SPT) which itself will visit states and places where persons are deprived of their liberty. It also requires states to set up independent national bodies to visit places of detention. This book, drawing upon events held and interviews with governments, civil society, members of UN treaty bodies, national visiting bodies and others, identifies key factors that have shaped the operation of these visiting bodies since OPCAT came into force in 2006. It looks in detail at the background to the adoption of the Protocol, as well as how the international committee, the SPT, has carried out its mandate in its first few years. It examines the range of places of detention that could be visited by these bodies, and the expectations placed on the national visiting bodies themselves. The book also places the OPCAT within the broader system of torture prevention in the UN and elsewhere and identifies a range of trends arising from the different geographical regions. As well as providing an insight into its work, this detailed examination of OPCAT also provides valuable lessons for other new human rights treaties such as the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the Convention on Enforced Disappearances, which have similar provisions concerning national mechanisms.

Book excerpt: Psychological mistreatment of prisoners is considered by those affected just as harmful as physical, according to British scientists. Behaviors such as psychological manipulation, humiliating treatment, exposure to adverse environmental conditions, such as cold or heat, as well as forcing him to maintain tense postures, are considered psychological abuse of a prisoner. Mental suffering, manifested in feelings of discomfort and lack of control, is very similar in these captives to that produced by physical torture and in both cases leads to traumatic stress and long-term psychological consequences. The definition in the Convention against Torture explains that this is "serious pain or suffering, whether physical or mental" inflicted on a person for a specific purpose by someone with official capacity. These would include various interrogation and detention procedures, such as blindfolding, putting on hoods, keeping the prisoner naked, isolating him, making him stand up, binding him with ropes, keeping him in the dark, and preventing him from sleeping, drinking or eating. Procedures to weaken his resistance, such as humiliating treatment or provoking fear, terror or a feeling of helplessness, would also be excluded from the definition. And all this with the argument that it would be necessary to prove that this treatment causes prolonged mental damage, such as post-traumatic stress.The book fully incorporates and updates the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture and other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.
