Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS), in collaboration with the UN Police (UNPOL) and the prisons service, on Tuesday concluded a human rights and gender-sensitivity training for 30 prison officers in Yambio, Western Equatoria State, a press release said.<\/p>\n

According to UNMISS, the training was aimed at enabling prisoners to serve out their sentences in decent conditions and help their eventual reintegration into society upon release.<\/p>\n

Gloria Karikari, a UNPOL officer, told the participants at the conclusion of the training that they are the foundation on which the corrections system rests and they should ensure that the rights of prisoners are respected.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou are the bedrock upon which the South Sudanese corrections system rests,\u201d UNPOL\u2019s Karikar said. \u201cIt falls on all of you to ensure that no prisoner has their fundamental human rights infringed upon.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cIt is only with empathy and kindness that persons who have, in the past exhibited criminal behavior, will be able to complete their sentences and rejoin their communities as productive citizens.\u201d Major Alex Yairo, a prison warden in Yambio, said he learned how to cater to the needs of female and juvenile prisoners.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a prison official, it\u2019s important for me to know how to uphold the rights and dignity of every inmate,\u201d Maj. Yairo said. \u201cThe other important aspect I learned from this training session is how to properly cater to the needs of female and juvenile prisoners, who have completely different sets of needs respectively.\u201d<\/p>\n

For her part, First Lieutenant Mary Pee believes that state authorities must take steps to improve living conditions in Yambio prison. \u201cFor someone accused of a crime to reform their ways, they must be treated with dignity while incarcerated,\u201d She said. \u201cCurrently, the conditions in our prisons are not conducive towards inmate reformation and this hampers their ultimate reintegration into society.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lt. Pee\u2019s views are echoed by her colleague Elizabeth Arminio who requested UNMISS to continue building capacities among prison officials across Western Equatoria through similar interventions in the future.<\/p>\n
