UAE prison overcrowding review
The National Human Rights Commission confirmed that addressing overcrowding in prisons requires tackling the root causes of the increasing number of detainees and reducing unnecessary recourse to deprivation of liberty. It also emphasizes strengthening legal alternatives such as community service, alternative sanctions, electronic monitoring, and probation. The UAE experience, which relies on clear criminal laws and policies aimed at improving detention conditions and promoting sustainable reintegration, was reviewed. The Commission recommended expanding the application of these alternatives and enhancing the infrastructure of prison-related services to ensure human dignity and effective reform.
