"The Green Paper on the application of EU criminal justice legislation in the field of detention reveals an alarming picture of prison overcrowding, a growing number of pre-trial detainees suffering physical and mental disorders and numerous cases of death and suicide. Detention conditions must be compatible with human dignity. The rights of suspects and of the accused must be guaranteed, including the right not to be subject to inhuman or degrading treatment. Moreover, pre-trial detention must remain an exceptional measure that can only be used for a limited period. The European Union must remain a model for the protection of fundamental rights. This is why we are calling on the Commission to present a legislative proposal on the rights of persons deprived of their liberty that includes minimum standards for prison and detention conditions, as well as uniform standards for compensation for persons unjustly detained or convicted."@en1
