The prison administration may apply a disciplinary sanction if you have not respected the prisoner’s obligations and prohibitions provided by the law, the bylaws and internal rules of the prison. The most severe punishments that can be imposed on you are disciplinary isolation and transfer to a stricter detention regime. 

All disciplinary penalties should be applied based on a written decision and after following the proper procedure.
