Abstract: This paper is a supplement to the International University College of Turin's September 2012 report 'Betwixt and Between: Turin's CIE - A Human Rights Iinvestigation into Turin's Immigration Detention Centre' (IUC Research Commons, paper no. 1-12), which considered the findings of an interview-based study of Turin's immigration detention centre in terms of international, European and Italian human rights and migration law. The 'Betwixt and Between' report examined Turin's Centre for Identification and Expulsion (Turin's CIE) by considering both individual and systemic problems faced by detainees, their families and people who have direct contact with Turin's CIE in a professional or voluntary capacity. On 12 November 2012, the researchers met with the Director of Turin's CIE (Italian Red Cross–Military Section) and senior representatives from the 'Questura di Torino – Ufficio Immigrazione'(Police Immigration Office) and Prefettura di Torino (the Italian government's territorial office) in order to conduct a lengthy interview about issues raised in the 'Betwixt and Between' research study. This paper analyses the information received during this interview with the authorities in response to the allegations made by interviewees of the September 2012 'Betwixt and Between' report in relation to conditions of detention inside Turin's CIE and related judicial and legal processes.
