14 49(11). Section 6 of the Constitution of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago precludes individuals from challenging, under Sections 4 and 5 of the Constitution, all laws or acts carried out pursuant to any law in force in Trinidad and Tobago before 1976, the year the Constitution entered into force. 49(12). The Constitution of Trinidad and Tobago does not provide, among its prescribed fundamental rights and freedoms, the right to a trial within a reasonable time. Regarding Mr. Caesar's detention and health conditions 49(13). Mr. Caesar has been incarcerated since September 10, 1991 (supra para. 49(2)) and has served 13 years of his 20-year sentence. 49(14). The prison system in Trinidad and Tobago consists of the following five prisons: Port of Spain Prison, Golden Grove Prison, Maximum Security Prison, Carrera Convict Prison and Tobago Prison. 49(15). During the course of his criminal proceedings, Mr. Caesar has been incarcerated at four of the five prisons in Trinidad and Tobago. After his arrest in 1991, he was held for a short time at the Port of Spain Prison, and he was then transferred to the Golden Grove Prison in Arouca, where he stayed for at least two months. Then he was returned to the Port of Spain Prison for two months. Subsequently, Mr. Caesar was sent back again to the Golden Grove Prison, where he remained until his trial in February 1996 when he was transferred to the Port of Spain Prison. Some time after, he was transferred to the Golden Grove Prison once again. After his case was dismissed by the Court of Appeal, he was returned to the Port of Spain Prison, where he was held for at least two months. He was then sent to the Carrera Convict Prison, where he was detained until November 1999. Finally, he was transferred to the Maximum Security Prison, where he remains to date. 49(16). In Golden Grove Prison and in Carrera Convict Prison the alleged victim shared a cell with 4 or 5 other men and slept on the floor with a thin mat or on an old piece of carpet. There were no toilet facilities and a “slop pail” was used by everyone in the cell. There was always a stench of human waste in the cell, which had little ventilation and was hot. 49(17). At the Maximum Security Prison Mr. Caesar is allowed outside his prison cell for one hour during the mornings and one hour during the evenings. 49(18). Since his incarceration, he has suffered serious health problems that have not been properly treated by the State authorities. His health has deteriorated over time. He has not received adequate dental treatment while in prison (he has lost most of his teeth, with only six remaining in his lower jaw). Subsequent to incarceration, Mr. Caesar developed chronic hemorrhoids from which he continues to suffer, and he has had a cyst in his testicles since 1998.
