Abstract
In this article the author analysis the characteristics of the penitentiary system in the
Republic of Macedonia and the position of the detainees de jure and de facto. The author
concludes that the penitentiary system in our country has the features of a modern system. He
is one of the penitentiary systems that fully incorporate the Standard Minimum Rules for the
Treatment of Prisoners and the European Prison Rules in the Law on Execution of Sanctions.
The paper provides an overview of the international and the national regulations on
the execution of detention, and also, it provides an analysis of the situation of the detainees in
the country. The author specifically analyses the acute problems facing the penitentiary
system regarding the enforcement of the detention and the situation of the detainees de jure
and de facto and mechanisms to protect the rights of detainees. Although data on the
execution of detention in the country are scarce, the author of the paper analyses the detention
using data from the reports of the Committee of the Council of Europe for the Prevention of
Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT) and the National
Preventive Mechanism (NPM) under the Ombudsman, as well as annual reports of the
Directorate for Execution of Sanctions on the condition and operation of the penal and
correctional institutions in the country.
From the analysis of the reports the general conclusion is that regardless of the fact
that the rights of the detainees are guaranteed by the law and by the international documents
and must not be violated and they also determine obligations whose execution does not
degrade the personality of the detainees, however, in practice there is a discrepancy between
the situation of detainees, de jure and de facto. The author of the paper detects key problems
facing our penitentiary system in terms of the execution of detention, namely: overcrowding
(overcrowding) in the detention units in the prisons; substandard conditions in detention units
in prisons, inadequate arrangements for detainees, improper treatment of detainees by prison
staff, inadequate nutrition, inadequate health care of detainees, inadequate staffing of
detention departments, etc.
