How do you complain about issues related to your detention?

You have the right to complain if you believe that any of your rights have been violated during your detention. Initially, you should complain locally, to Slovenian institutions, authorities and courts. International and European institutions will not accept your claim if you have not complained and tried to resolve your issues with local institutions first. You can only apply to international and European institutions if you believe that violations of your rights have not been remedied by Slovenian institutions.
