Prison Rules
[1986 Ed.
(2) The searching of a prisoner shall be conducted with due regard to decency and self-respect, and in as seemly a manner as is consistent with the necessity of discovering any concealed articles.
(3) No prisoner shall be stripped and searched in the sight of another prisoner unless a senior officer considers it necessary in the interests of the security of a prison or the safety of any person.
10. No prisoner shall be searched other than by an officer of the same sex. In other respects the same course shall be pursued in reference to the admission or discharge of a female prisoner as in the case of a male prisoner.
11. (1) Money found on a prisoner committed for non-payment of a fine shall, unless a magistrate otherwise directs in writing on the warrant of commitment, be applied towards the fine adjudged to be paid, provided that the prisoner shall be allowed to keep $10 and any lesser sum which does not represent a day's imprisonment.
(2) Subject to the provisions of paragraph (1), all money, clothing and other effects belonging to a prisoner which he is not allowed to retain, shall be placed in the custody of the Superintendent, who shall cause an inventory thereof to be kept. Such inventory shall be signed by the prisoner concerned certifying its correctness.
12. (1) The name, age, height, weight, particular marks and such other measurements and particulars as may be required in regard to a prisoner shall upon his admission and from time to time be recorded.
(2) Any physical or mental disability from which a prisoner may be suffering at the time of his admission shall be recorded.
(3) The religion, if any, of a prisoner shall be recorded at the time of his admission and he shall be treated during his term of imprisonment as being of any religion so recorded unless the Superintendent is satisfied that the prisoner is an adherent of another religion or has ceased to adhere to any religion.
13. Every prisoner may be photographed on reception and subsequently, but no copy of the photograph shall be given to any person unless he is officially authorized to receive it.
14. Every prisoner shall, as soon as possible after his admission, be separately examined by the Medical Officer, who shall record the state of health of the prisoner, and such other particulars as he may deem necessary:
Provided that when a prisoner is admitted too late to be examined on the same day he shall be examined as soon as possible on the next day, and in any case within 24 hours of admission.
15. Every prisoner shall take a bath on reception, unless the Superintendent or Medical Officer otherwise directs.
