Main cellblock | The Tribunal

The main cellblock had a circular shape. It was located straight underneath the rotunda and within the building's fortified centre. As can be seen through the doorways a corridor ran around this space from which the several holding cells fanned out.

 

The cellblock was accessible to those who needed access, such as Security Officers and the Facilities Management Unit. And of course to defence counsel and their teams, though they would normally access it together with their clients from the courtrooms through the many hidden corridors that ran in the walls of the building.

 

The accused and the convicted persons, who were either appealing sentences or awaiting transfer after final judgement, were held overnight in the United Nations Detention Unit located within a Dutch prison in the Scheveningen part of The Hague.

 

 

From my project The Tribunal, which I made during my last years at the ICTY to show the great diversity of this amazing institution. The full project can be accessed on my site below.
