A/HRC/10/8/Add.1 page 53 However, Mr. Moody had expressed a desire to wear the kufi everywhere at all time, which is not allowed under the Rules. The WNMCF did not find any misconduct reports for him wearing his kufi; however, one deputy warden stated he had repeatedly asked Mr. Moody to remove it when he was not allowed to and he did. For this reason, in the view of the WNMCF, it had not been an issue. 201. With regard to the announcement of the Jumah prayer services over facility loudspeakers, the WNMCF responded that the deputy warden had kept the weekly sign-in logs for the Islamic services dating back to 25 July 2008. These showed that the services had taken place and that Mr. Moody had attended all of them. The deputy warden also noted that while the services may not always have been announced over the intercom system, the prison officers went into the unit to announce them. 202.

The Special Rapporteur is grateful for the Government’s response, which also included a copy of the NMCD policies on religious programs. In particular, she would like to refer to the policy CD-101300 (C) which stipulates that “an inmate’s religious requests, including those considered being fundamental and essential, may be denied for reasons of security or for other substantiated reasons. If a request is denied, alternatives to accommodate the religious practice must be explored which might allow the inmate to practice by the means appropriate to their custody level”. In addition, she would like to refer to general comment No. 22 of the Human Rights Committee, which states “persons already subject to certain legitimate constraints, such as prisoners, continue to enjoy their rights to manifest their religion or belief to the fullest extent compatible with the specific nature of the constraint”.
