2.4 2014 年 5 月 27 日，尽管医生认为申诉人需要进一步的治疗，但申诉人还是根据布琼布拉检察院签发的逮捕令被强行逮捕，并被带到 Mpimba 中央监狱，那里的条件不人道，并有辱人格。第二天，即 2014 年 5 月 28 日，迫于一些民间社会组织的压力，申诉人被送往查尔斯摄政王医院，在该医院住了 10 天，然后被送回 Mpimba 中央监狱。直到 2014 年 10 月 7 日，他才得以在该医院再次接受检查。由于他的状况恶化，特别是右臂因未更换的敷料造成感染，几乎无法动弹，主治医生给他开了每周三次理疗的处方。然而，监狱管理部门不准他接受理疗。
2.4 On 27 May 2014, against the advice of doctors that he needed further care, the complainant was forcibly arrested on a warrant issued by the public prosecutor’s office of Bujumbura and was taken to Mpimba central prison, where conditions are inhuman and degrading. The next day, on 28 May 2014, thanks to pressure from a number of civil society organizations, the complainant was taken to Prince Régent Charles hospital, where he spent 10 days before being returned to Mpimba central prison. It was not until 7 October 2014 that he was able to be examined again at Prince Régent Charles hospital. Given his worsening condition, in particular the condition of his right arm, which was essentially paralysed due to infection caused by an unchanged dressing, the doctor prescribed three physical therapy sessions per week. However, prison management did not authorize him to undergo that treatment.
