implementing the improvement measures and there still exist needs for improvement in the management and regulation of the riot/conscripted police units. Yet again, the Commission compiled a list of recommendations including i) subjecting victims, perpetrators, officers to human rights education to change the attitude on abuse and brutality, ii)constant monitoring of implementation of preventive measures, and iii) providing protection to victims, offering special protection for soldiers suffering from adjustment issues, and increasing professional counseling. They also included the ultimate recommendation for putting an end to human rights violation of soldiers serving in the riot and conscripted police units: a complete abolishment of the institution of the riot and conscripted police and to replace them with regular police force. 4) On-site Investigation: Military Prison The Commission visited two military prisons managed by XX Command and its Xth Division in response to a growing number of complaints filed by prisoners at military prisons and recurring incidents of brutality and death within the military. Complaints filed by military prisoners alleged serious human rights violations committed by prison guards, which calls for a comprehensive review of military prison operation. The Commission’s finding of the Marine Corp’s widespread culture of tolerating abuse and brutality from its suo moto investigation raised an alarm for treatment of soldiers convicted of such actions. The two military prisons were reputed for their exceptionally harsh treatment of inmates including forcing inmates to repeatedly write declaration of repent and maintain rigid posture, making them ideal candidates of revealing human rights violation. After visiting the two prisons, the Commission recommended the Minister of Defense to establish regulations on physical examination standards and methods for new inmates, address the practice of mandatory prison guard presence during visitation hours, obtain acknowledgement form from family members of inmates at the beginning of prison term, and maintain accurate CCTV records.
