The inquest heard that Faqiri, who had schizophrenia, appeared increasingly unwell during his time at the Central East Correctional Centre in Lindsay, Ont., and many correctional and medical staff members expressed concerns about him
Five months after a coroner’s inquest into the death of a mentally ill man at an Ontario jail, his family said Thursday the province has failed to implement any of the dozens of recommendations aimed at preventing similar deaths in the future.
But Faqiri’s brother, Yusuf Faqiri, said Thursday the province has not fulfilled any of the inquest’s recommendations, including what he called the “easiest one,” a call for a statement recognizing jails are not an appropriate environment for people with significant mental health issues, which came with a 60-day deadline.
The family is also seeking an apology from the province and Premier Doug Ford for what happened to Soleiman Faqiri. “I feel very bad for the family. This is a tragedy, as I said in the legislature, of immeasurable proportion,” he said.
