Buenos Aires, February 18 (NA) -- The La Plata Appeals Court granted a collective habeas corpus to guarantee timely access to university education for women deprived of their liberty. As learned by the Argentine News Agency, and as indicated by the Penitentiary Prosecutor's Office, the measure was promoted by detainees who are students at the Federal Women's Penitentiary Complex IV in Ezeiza. Meanwhile, this decision considered the systematic delays in the transfers of students to the University Center for Education (CUE) as an illegal aggravation of detention conditions. The representative of the collective of university students was an assistant who denounced that they systematically arrived late to their classes, to the point that in two and a half months they were late in 19 of 28 attendances, with delays of up to an hour and a half due to deficiencies in the transfers of the Federal Penitentiary Service (SPF). The problem has been resolved and the detainees will be taken out of the pavilions with more advance notice, although a similar habeas corpus, presented in 2024, showed that the problem continued when judicial control ceased.
