THE Chinese government will open its detention and re-education centers for visits starting July 1 in a bid to gain public understanding after a string of detainee deaths.
Places open to the public will include detainees' rooms, dining halls and rooms for reading, entertainment, inquests and medical treatment, said a statement released by the Ministry of Public Security yesterday.
Visitors, including journalists and relatives of detainees, must first apply for permission from local police authorities and show their ID cards or reference letters from their work groups on entry, according to the statement.
Administrators of both centers are required to arrange regular visiting schedules for relatives of detainees and meet with them to explain living conditions and solicit opinions on their management.
Visitors can talk with detainees in the presence of the police.
