President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has examined the conditions created in the newly constructed modern penitentiary complex of the Ministry of Justice in Lankaran.
Minister of Justice Fikrat Mammadov briefed the head of state on the penitentiary complex.
The penitentiary complex, designed to accommodate up to 1300 individuals, consists of two zones and includes seven cell blocks equipped with various amenities.
Facilities such as a library, TV room, and a sports field are available to ensure productive leisure time for inmates.
The penitentiary complex houses a medical point, prayer room, kitchen, dining hall, and laundry.
Special rooms equipped with the necessary tools for remote participation in court hearings through video conferencing, as well as for phone calls and video meetings for detainees, were established.
