On 28 March 2025, Dutch newspaper Trouw published a front page article on systemic failures in medical care for detained women. That same day, Bureau Clara Wichmann presented a report to the Dutch State Secretary for Justice and Security describing how over 50 detained women had not been given adequate medical care, sometimes resulting in severe damage to their health, even death. Detainee testimonies reveal that medical complaints are often dismissed, access to specialised care is insufficient, and the process of dispensing medication is prone to errors. Additionally, gender-sensitive care is lacking, and the absence of continuity in medical treatment poses severe health risks.
