The Ministry of Justice in Kyrgyzstan has introduced a draft resolution for public discussion, suggesting allowing prisoners to make internet purchases. The proposal involves amending the internal regulations of correctional institutions to enable convicts to buy necessary goods online.
This initiative responds to the current trend of providing services online and recognizes the prevalence of online shopping for prisoners in various post-Soviet countries, including Russia.
The potential change indicates the adaptation of prison systems to the digital era, emphasizing the importance of granting inmates access to essential items through online platforms. If approved, this measure could enhance the convenience and efficiency of purchasing goods for prisoners while upholding essential security measures in correctional facilities.
