Inmates are forced to go to the prison courtyard early in the morning, and despite the rain or cold weather they are kept there for long hours.

At times there have been cases where the prisoners, suffering from severe sleep deprivation, have fallen asleep in the courtyard under the snow, and when they wake up they find themselves covered with a layer of snow.
