In the course of a year is 11 sentenced and pre-trial detainees escaped from retspsykiatriske departments.

Persons, who are remanded or sentenced to treatment at a retspsykiatrisk department, release more often away than inmates in the country’s prisons and detention.

It appears by a statement that the Danish Regions have made for Jyllands-Posten.

In the course of a year – from the 1. July 2018 to 1. July 2019 – was registered 11 so-called blow-off from the retspsykiatriske departments.

blow-off is according to the Danish Regions, characterized by the fact that “patients run away from the closed section and break out at times when the patient is not assigned to any degrees of freedom”.

In the same period there were registered nine cases, where the inmates in Danish prisons and detention improperly got free.

Prisons and arresthusene houses the well to mark over six times as many convicted and pre-trial detainees as Deneme Bonusu retspsykiatrien.

the Figures concern the politicians in the Danish Parliament where the health minister Magnus Heunicke (S) call the statement “alarming”.

– We must get to the bottom of what it is for some types – and how we can get the tightened up security, he says to Jyllands-Posten.

the Security of the retspsykiatrien has been in focus, after the Tuesday succeeding the perpetrators to free the 24-year-old Hemin Dilshad Saleh from a retspsykiatrisk department at Slagelse Hospital.

He has a leading role in the bandegrupperingen NPV from Nørrebro in Copenhagen and was remanded in custody in a case of an aggravated assault.

Hemin Dilshad Saleh was on the retspsykiatriske department in Slagelse, because he had to mentalundersøges.

Retspsykiatriske patients who are admitted to the almenpsykiatriske departments, are not included in the inventory from the Danish Regions.
