Rwanda (ICTR) commended the quality of the detention Centre-Mpanga prison as meeting international standards. 39. In all 14 prisons in Rwanda, the government has provided treatment for tuberculosis (TB) and in 8 prisons the government has provided full TB diagnostic and treatment services. In all prisons, HIV positive inmates/prisoners, receive ARV’s and go through the clinical follow up recommended for HIV positive people. The government also due to failing health of some inmates/prisoners, releases those who are unable to complete community work. 40. The government established nursery schools for children under three years' old living with their mothers in prisons. Each nursery school also has a cow to provide fresh milk to the children. The same improved conditions are provided for suspects under pre-trial detention. Children or juveniles both sentenced or under pre-trial detention are put in separate cells with modern facilities. Due to all these measures put in place, there has been an increase of space for sleeping (80cm by 2m) in prisons complying with the international standards for prisons. The office of the Ombudsman is responsible for examining and monitoring the treatment of people detained in prisons and court cells, immigration detention facilities, health and disability places of detention (e.g. hospitals and secure care facilities), child care and protection and youth justice residences. 41. The National Human Rights Commission and inspectors have unrestricted access to the relevant places of detention. They also have unrestricted access to information about the number of detainees, the treatment of detainees, and the conditions of detention.
