Torah Mahkoum prison is one of the places used by Ministry of Interior to uphold detainees "awaiting" sentence. They keep getting re-referred to prosecutor every 15 days who either extends their detention or release them. Such waiting period and extensions could be legally extended to a maximum of six month. For this reason it is usually used to punish and deterr political prisoners who can spend up to six months in this place with criminal prisoners and/or under inhumane conditions without solid charges or court sentence.
