Communication text used for prediction

The application concerns the continued detention on remand in a common ward of Rebibbia prison (Rome) of a drug addict suffering from a severe psychiatric disorder, notwithstanding domestic courts’ decisions revoking his detention on remand and imposing his placement in a specialized structure, and expert reports underlying the incompatibility of detention with his state of mental health.
The applicant complains of the unlawfulness of his prolonged detention; of the conditions of his detention, inadequate for his mental health in the absence of specific treatment for his psychiatric issues; of the absence of domestic remedies and of non-enforcement of domestic courts’ decisions ordering his placement outside prison.
