In a civilized country, you would have an Inspector of Prisons who was responsible for maintaining standards in prisons and ensuring the rights of prisoners are not violated. Britain used to have a such an office, but in the case of prisoners of the United States, such as Julian Assange, that office apparently doesn't exist. It was called H.M. Inspector of Prisons or something, indicating that it was something to do with The Crown, or Sovereignty, or some outdated tradition like that.
