The prevention of deaths in police cellsMakgopa, Lazarus 06 1900 (has links)
The research question of this study is to determine what circumstances and conditions
contribute to deaths in police cells. The study was undertaken in order to establish the causes of
deaths in police cells and the factors which contribute thereto, as well as to determine the best
international practices to prevent deaths in police cells. The literature was reviewed in order to
establish the extent to which this phenomenon has been researched in South Africa and in other
countries and to determine the regulatory framework related thereto. The researcher had
collected data from the dockets relating to deaths in police cells which were kept at the IPID
provincial offices in Gauteng and Limpopo. The data were collected by using the docket
analysis schedule and were categorised into themes during the analysis process. Four cause of
deaths in police cells were identified, namely, suicide, natural causes, assault by fellow
detainees and injuries which were sustained prior to detention. Suicide is the leading cause of
deaths. The second leading causes of deaths in police cells are natural causes and assault by
fellow detainees. Deaths as a result of injuries sustained prior to detention came third. The most
common ligatures which were used to commit suicide are shoe-laces, belts and strips torn from
clothing and bedding items. The preferred ligature points are the burglar proof bars on cell
windows. Booted feet and hands were the most common instruments used to inflict fatal injuries
on the detainees. It was also found that police officials are generally not complying fully with the
standing orders which regulate the management of people who are detained in police cells. The
failure of police officials to comply fully with the standing orders on custody in police cells
contributed to the deaths of detainees in police cells. Recommendations are made to prevent
the deaths of detainees in police cells. / Police Practice / M. Tech. (Policing)

Immigration is a topic that plays an important role in American society, it manages to capture both the general public as well as the political world. Especially in the United States of America, it is a very complex issue that affects a large number of sectors which is why a specific area has been selected for this thesis in order to narrow the researched field and provide detailed information. The thesis seeks to analyze the situation in immigration detention facilities throughout the U.S. with regard to basic human rights violations. For this reason, the thesis focuses on international humanitarian law and the Constitution of the United States, which should protect both legal and illegal immigrants, however, their non-compliance is one of the main points interconnecting all chapters of this paper. Due to the availability of resources and greater relevance this paper focuses on the situation of the last 15 years (namely from 2008 onwards) and attaches great importance to the final 3-4 years and the administration of Donald Trump.
