华盛顿7月15日电(路透社)——根据周三发布的一份报告,美国两家人权组织收到举报称,得克萨斯州一处美国移民和海关执法局拘留所的囚犯遭到警卫殴打、拒绝提供医疗服务,且被禁止联系家人与律师。

这份由人权观察组织和美国公民自由联盟发布的报告长达数十页,基于人权观察组织对80名囚犯的访谈,访谈内容聚焦于位于埃尔帕索美军布利斯堡的东蒙大拿营拘留所的关押状况。

“东蒙大拿营的被拘留者举报称,警卫经常实施殴打和其他过度武力行为,囚犯长期营养不良,生活环境不卫生且有辱人格,”报告援引访谈内容称,“这些虐待行为共同违反了美国和国际人权法规定的基本保护条款。”

该报告是针对该拘留所一系列虐待指控调查的最新一起,这里是美国规模最大的移民拘留中心。

隶属于移民海关执法局的美国国土安全部在一份声明中表示,有关该拘留所存在非人道关押条件的报道“完全是虚假的”。

“没有任何被拘留者遭到殴打或虐待,”声明称,并补充说移民海关执法局高度重视被拘留者的安全与健康,不会拒绝为任何人提供医疗服务。

“所有被拘留者都能获得完整的正当程序,获得正规餐食、饮用水、医疗救治,并有机会联系家人和律师,”声明补充道。

报告中援引一名来自洪都拉斯、28岁、化名伊斯梅尔·M.的被拘留者的话称,在被关押的五个多月里,他出现了抑郁症状和自杀念头。

“我有时会盯着床单,琢磨着上吊自杀会不会比撑过这场酷刑更容易些,”他被引述说。

东蒙大拿营此前已多次遭到移民权益倡导者的批评。

美国政府一份监督报告上月指出,该拘留所未提交使用武力报告,未向重病囚犯提供药物,且通过仓促签订的合同浪费了数千万纳税人资金。

移民海关执法局是唐纳德·特朗普总统推行的移民打压与驱逐行动的牵头部门,人权组织谴责该行动违反了言论自由和正当程序权利。

人权组织表示,这场打压行动制造了不安全的环境,对少数族裔群体尤甚,他们已对种族 profiling 行为提出担忧。

特朗普称其政策旨在改善国内安全。

自特朗普去年1月就职以来,全美已有约50人在移民海关执法局羁押期间死亡。

Detainees at ICE facility in Texas were beaten and abused, rights groups say

WASHINGTON, July 15 (Reuters) – Detainees at ​a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Texas told two rights groups they were ‌beaten by guards, denied medical care and prevented from contacting family and lawyers, according to a report issued on Wednesday.

The report, issued by Human Rights Watch and the American Civil Liberties Union, spans dozens of pages and is based on 80 interviews ​HRW conducted with detainees that focused on conditions at Camp East Montana, which is located at ​the U.S. Army’s Fort Bliss in El Paso.

“People detained at Camp East Montana reported routine ⁠beatings and other excessive force by guards, chronic malnutrition, and unsanitary and degrading living conditions,” the report said, ​citing interviews. “Together, these abuses violate fundamental protections under U.S. and international human rights law.”

The report is the latest ​in a string of investigations documenting abuses at the facility, the largest immigration detention center in the U.S.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, of which ICE is a part, said in a statement that reports of inhumane conditions at the facility were “categorically false”.

“No ​detainees are being beaten or abused,” it said, adding ICE took seriously the safety and health of those ​who are detained and did not deny anyone medical care.

“All detainees receive full due process and are provided with proper meals, ‌water, ⁠medical treatment, and have opportunities to communicate with their family members and lawyers,” it added.

One detainee, identified in the report as Ismael M., 28, from Honduras, was quoted as saying he experienced depressive episodes and suicidal thoughts during his more than five months in detention.

“I sometimes look at my bed sheets, and I wonder if it ​would be easier to hang ​myself instead of trying ⁠to survive this torture,” he was quoted as saying.

Camp East Montana has repeatedly faced criticism from immigration advocates.

It failed to issue use-of-force reports, did not give medicine ​to seriously ill detainees and wasted tens of millions in taxpayer dollars through rushed ​contracts, a U.S. ⁠government watchdog report said last month.

ICE has been the face of an immigration crackdown and deportation drive that President Donald Trump has pursued and which has been condemned by human rights groups as being in violation of free speech and due process rights.

Human ⁠rights groups ​say the crackdown has created an unsafe environment, especially for ethnic ​minorities, who have raised concerns about racial profiling.

Trump says his actions are aimed at improving domestic security.

About 50 people have died in ICE custody around ​the country since Trump took office in January last year.
