Summary
Mr C, who is a prisoner, complained that the Scottish Prison Service had delayed in transferring him back to the prison he had previously been in. Mr C told us that he was transferred out of the prison for what was intended to be a 12-week period, but his return there was then delayed. His family were unable to visit him because the other prison was too far away. During our investigation, however, Mr C was transferred back to his original prison. He told us that in view of this, he wanted to withdraw his complaint.
