Analysis of the DDS records, which include prison Situation Journals and prisoner death certificates, revealed that the mortality rate within the DDS prisons varied from 30 per 1,000 to 87 per 1,000 prisoners. This rate is substantially higher than the crude mortality rate of Chad in the 1970’s and 1990’s which was less than 25 per 1,000. The death rate for the whole of Chad, unlike DDS prison mortality, is mainly driven by high infant mortality.
