During the visit, the Working Group held meetings with various authorities of the executive, legislative and judicial branches of the State. It also had the opportunity to meet with detainees, prisoners, representatives of the civil society and the United Nations agencies. The Working Group visited 14 detention facilities, including prisons with convicted and pretrial detainees; police stations and police detention centres; an immigration reception centre; psychiatric hospitals; and facilities for women and juveniles. The facilities visited were located in Yerevan, Aboviyan, Artik, Goris, Sevan and Vanadzor. Three unannounced visits were also made to police stations in Aparan, Goris and Sevan.

It refers to important legislative reforms made in recent years that are conducive to creating better standards of human rights for persons who are deprived of their liberty.
