Monaco is a country governed by a sovereign prince and a National Council, who cooperate on all legislative procedures. The country had elections in 2013, which international observers declared legitimate.[1] Monaco has established policy that protects human rights. Nevertheless, there has been pressure from various parties to improve said rights in the country.[2]
There have been several recent cases of prisoner mistreatment in Monaco,[3] including prison facilities that have allegedly failed to provide sufficient recreation time for prisoners. In addition, several large organizations such as the Council of Europe's European Committee for the Prevention of Torture have been active in reviewing the prison system in the country.[4] Other issues include the preservation of national security, wherefore the country maintains voice recordings of anybody engaged in organized crime.[5]
