The Turkish prison system consists of various types of facilities, including high-security prisons, closed prisons, and open prisons. It is managed by the Ministry of Justice and aims to rehabilitate inmates while ensuring public safety. The system has faced criticism for overcrowding and conditions in some facilities. In recent years, reforms have been implemented to improve living conditions and provide educational and vocational training programs for inmates. The European Court of Human Rights has also addressed issues related to the treatment of prisoners, emphasizing the need for humane conditions and adherence to international standards.
