Traslados arbitrarios de personas detenidas dentro del sistema penitenciario federal
A pesar de que los instrumentos Internacionales de protección de Derechos Humanos reconocen el derecho de las personas privadas de libertad a cumplir la pena en establecimientos cercanos a la residencia de su familia y al lugar de asiento de su tribunal y de su defensor; en Argentina no existe una regulación específica que contemple las formas de notificación de los traslados, las causales y vías de impugnación.

Pourtant, le sujet semble peu porté et le contentieux est très faible, tant parce que les victimes de discrimination ont du mal à apporter des éléments probants, que parce que dans leur esprit comme dans celui des recruteurs la prise en compte de l’apparence physique reste trop souvent tolérée, sans prise de conscience de son caractère potentiellement discriminatoire pourtant prévu dans la loi.
