Question 11523 — places of deprivation of liberty

Summary

Mr. Julien Gabarron draws the attention of the Keeper of the Seals, Minister of Justice, to the information relayed by the local press reporting a disclosure, by the interregional directorate of prison services, of the identity of surveillance agents to an inmate considered particularly dangerous in the Béziers penitentiary center. According to these elements, the administration would have communicated by mail to the latter the names of the personnel responsible for carrying out searches of his cell, even though this type of intervention involves strict protocols intended to preserve the anonymity and security of the agents assigned to prisoners with a violent profile. Such a situation would constitute a serious breach of the protection obligations incumbent on the prison administration and would directly expose the guards concerned to increased risks. of intimidation, retaliation or committing an act, further compromising the overall security of the establishment. In a context where prison staff regularly warn of the increase in violence in detention and the need to strengthen the systems guaranteeing their anonymity, the lack of clarification on the circumstances of this disclosure weakens the confidence of these officers in their hierarchy and raises legitimate concerns regarding compliance with internal procedures. Such practices, if they were to become widespread or repeated, could call into question the administration's ability to ensure a safe working environment and prevent major incidents, particularly in the face of profiles identified as violent or unstable. Under these conditions, he would like to know the provisions that the Government intends implemented in order to sustainably strengthen the protection and anonymity of staff confronted with particularly dangerous detainees.
