'Slopping out' a breach of rights
Slopping out breached prisoner's rightsA former inmate's claim that "slopping out" breached the European Human Rights Convention has been upheld in the High Court in Belfast.
Justin John Martin, 33, from east Belfast, won a declaration that the Prison Service failed to adequately respect his right to private life.
Mr Martin said the lack of in-cell facilities was "degrading".
A claim for damages was dismissed, but the Service was ordered to pay his costs, estimated at more than £100,000.
now i wonder if the person who was his victim has had their private life respected when he did his crime.I dont know what his crime was but there is no such thing as a victimless crime someone is usually on the other end of it.I wonder sometimes if the priortys are right in this world is nt prison a punishment so if you have to slop out so what don't do the crime if you cant do the time.
