Articles 9 and 10 paragraph 1 of Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning Corrections
are also referred to as the rights of convicts, including the right to education and teaching, the
right to receive treatment, both spiritual and physical care, the right to receive proper health
and food services. Health is a condition that is not only free from disease but also covers all
aspects of human life which include physical, emotional, social and spiritual aspects. One of
the forms of not yet optimal guidance for prisoners in Class II A prison in Pekanbaru is in the
health sector, almost 52% of prisoners still experience difficulties in fulfilling their right to
proper health and food services. The formulation of the problems in this study are: first, State
responsibility in implementing the fulfillment of the rights of convicts by Correctional
Institutions based on Human Rights in Pekanbaru City (Case study of Pekanbaru Class IIA
Penitentiary).

while in prison. Fulfillment of Prisoners' Rights by Correctional Institutions Based on Human
Rights in the City of Pekanbaru (Case Study of Class II A Correctional Institutions of
