19 Mr. Caesar experienced severe anguish, stress and fear as he was exposed to the suffering of other inmates, as well as during the moments immediately preceding his actual flogging, due to his recent hemorrhoid surgery; g) the carrying out of the corporal punishment in the presence of complete strangers severely humiliated Mr. Caesar; h) the doctor present during the corporal punishment breached his ethical code by permitting the punishment to be executed, as he was fully aware of the alleged victim’s health condition; and i) the State violated Article 2 of the Convention by failing to give domestic legal effect to the rights protected under Article 5 of the Convention; f) Regarding Mr. Caesar’s detention conditions the conditions of detention to which Mr. Caesar has been subjected violate Articles 5.1 and 5.2 of the Convention and, moreover, fail to meet the standards required by the relevant United Nations Minumum Rules; and k) Mr. Caesar was not given the necessary surgery until five or six years after the pertinent medical recommendation, in breach of the relevant United Nations Minimum Rules, a situation that worsened his condition.
