Nobody would disagree the necessity for penalties
as a result of crimes. Thus, the concession of certain rights in case of convicts
is frequently assumed to be right. Basic rights in jail are frequently at stick
in the jails in Bangladesh. According to Bangladesh jail website, the overall
prison people of Bangladesh are 79280 alongside an endorsed capacity of 36,614.
Section 129 of the Bangladesh Jail Code explains
that there should be sufficient space for sleeping for the prisoners. Conversely,
prisoners regularly sleep in shifts. Amongst the total 68 jails through the
country, according to IG of Prisons only six doctors continue functioning in 5 jails.
Accordingly, health requirements generally keep on unattended. Moreover,
according to the Jail Code, each convict is entitled to a sure quantity of
food, when in actual fact the convicts frequently do not get any foodstuff to
eat at all. Bangladesh is so far to safeguard the basic human rights of convicts.
In addition, in Bangladesh, convicts do not have
right to vote in national elections. The embargo is created on an old-fashioned
formation of sentence. In several European Countries, convicts delight in a
right to vote, it is time the situation be revised in Bangladesh. It is claimed
that though right to food and medical desires are appreciated in the jails, a prohibition
on voting rights is an groundless course of action in result of the wrong devoted.
Specified the overhead conditions, it is to be renowned that we should develop
our prison system to guarantee the human rights and fundamental rights of the prisoners.
