| description | This dissertation seeks to establish whether upon conviction prisoners are still being afforded their right to human dignity. This basic right is assured by the Constitution and prisoners are entitled to it regardless of the fact that they are incarcerated. Prisoners like all other citizens are entitled to the enjoyment of the greatest achievable standard of human dignity. This dissertation also seeks to call upon the government to urgently address the issues of disease outbreaks, food shortages, treatment of prisoners and living conditions in prison. The Prisons and Correctional Services of Zimbabwe must also ensure that the prison health system is integrated into the health system and establish links and collaborations with the Ministry of Health and Child Care in an effort to curtail disease outbreaks in prisons and curb preventable deaths |
