Committee for Protecting Rights of Prisoners (CPRP)

The Committee for Protecting Rights of Prisoners (CPRP) is a non-governmental, non-profit body consisting of activists, former prisoners, attorneys and civil society advocates who believe that prisoners in the Sri Lankan Prison system ought to be necessitated to have equal opportunity to live, as any other citizen, as stated in the Penal Code that all citizens are equal before the law. Formed on the basis of upholding the Rights of Prisoners stated in the Sri Lankan Constitution – within a nation-state in which any citizen can easily be apprehended at the hands of the State – the Committee exists to provide legal aid and advice, intervene and advocate for rights ranging from demanding basic welfare, better prison conditions, justice for cases of torture, to the right to life of prisoners.
