After being released from prison, what ended the prison money?

There is a financial regulation under which all the money sent to the prisoner is transferred through the bank account, including money, in case these people have access to it, reports Insander newspaper.

And after the release of the former prisoners, they must apply and the tools left there will be transferred to their own accounts.

Despite what the regulation says, the National Audition Office has found that a considerable amount of tools have not been returned to prisoners, writes Insander.

There are 32 thousand and 647 euros that continue to remain in the trust fund. For this fund, the Kosovo Correcting Service is responsible.

Insander has provided a list of tools that have not been returned to prisoners for each of the detention centers and correctional centres until the end of 2017.

Mostly money from no return has been collected at the correctional centre in Dubrava. The total of 17 thousand and 553 euros continues to remain in the centre's account. After that, the detention centre in Lipjan is ranked, where 4 thousand and 6671 euros have been collected, while at the correctional centre in Lipjan 2 thousand and 160 euros.

According to documentation provided by the General Auditor's Office, at the detention centre in Prizren there have been two thousand and 586, at the detention centre in the capital, two thousand and 339 euros, while at the detention centre in Gjilan, there are 10,000 and 566 euros.

Less than 1000 euros are in other centres' accounts -- the detention centre in Pec 966 euros -- at the correctional centre at Smreconica 735 euros, and at the detention centre in Mitrovica 58 euros.

A minimum amount of 10 euros has been collected in the Brdofc maximum security prison.

The National Audit Office has been cautioning Kosovo's Correcting Service about the failure to return these means. This, according to ZAP, is contrary to applicable rules.

ZAP finds that this mismanagement of prisoner's assets increases the risk that these devices are exposed to misuse.

For this reason the office of the audience recommends that the minister of justice through the director general of the Kosovo Correcting Service ensure that the relevant officials, who are in charge of managing prison money, with the case of completing the sentences, each person released from prison return the means they have in deposit.

Correcting Service Shows Where Prison Free Money Remains

Kosovo's correcting service, as manager of these means, ensures that money that has not yet been returned to those released from prisons is secure. Moreover, this institution shows how it came to raise this amount and why they haven't returned.

Living Kabashi, official for public communication in the USKK, said the total amount of 32 thousand euros has been collected since the start of this service in 1999 and with the functioning of the PPB in 2005.

So we explain to you that this amount is raised by small amounts like 0.01 cents, 0.05 cents, 0.10 cents, 0.10 , 1 euro etc. These released prisoners didn't come to get”, said Jeton Kabashi.

“Ven to check that the value of the money to the prisoners who have escaped, killed themselves, and the prisoners who have been released and some of the money was given during the release (up to 100 euros) and the rest have not completed it with the documentation for banking transfer (the return of their means through his bank account or any family member to whom he authorized)<18x1>, said Kabashi.

Kabashi told Inseder that this amount remains in prison accounts “and is available whenever the releases complete documentation for withdrawal of tools or transfer of banks”.

Moreover, he said that for all this situation, the Correcting Service has called the prisoners to make the withdrawal of their means that you have remained in the trust fund.

However, interest on their part has not been expressed due to small sums, stressing large transport expenditures as the main reasons why they do not want to proceed with the” procedures, Kabashi said.

According to Kabashi, there are also cases where prisoners (recives) have been returned to prison, and their previous resources have again been available for exploitation.

The Auditor's office had also found last year that the value of 25,644 euros was money that had not been returned to prisoners after their release. At the Dubrava Correcting Center in late 2016 alone, the value of unbroken means was 13,844 euros.

But Kabashi said in 2017 the amount of 23 thousand and 103 euros has been returned to those released through bank accounts.

This Kosovo Correcting Service official has indicated that a new regulation aimed at eliminating problems identified by the Office of the General Auditor has been approved.

The Financial Rules of Prisoners

Kosovo's government had issued financial regulation for the management of trust funds ) deposit of prisoners in 2012. It explains how the record of deposits is conducted in the Financial Management Information System (SIMFK).

The treasure has founded a sub-calculator in the BQK on behalf of every prison for the benefit of prisoners. The CBC prepares a daily report on all sub-calculation activities and sends it to the treasury. The daily report will then be sent from the Treasury to the SHKK. It is the responsibility of the SHKK to put all prisoners' deposits in SIMFK.

The transfer of prison funds deposits is made when the prisoner is transferred from one prison or detention center to another or when the prisoner is released from prison.

“At the request of the USKK treasury will transfer the tools from to accounts identified to the NLB account request and balance of remaining funds will be transferred to the prisoner's personal account, and all in line with the SKK” request, the financial regulation said.
