In July 2017, all the Witnesses detained in the Meitir Camp were transferred to the Mai Serwa Prison outside of Asmara. On November 30, 2017, all 13 Witnesses detained in the Sawa Camp, including Paulos Eyasu, Isaac Mogos, and Negede Teklemariam, were also transferred to the Mai Serwa Prison.
Most of the imprisoned male Witnesses are incarcerated indefinitely, with no hope of release until they die or are near death. Since there are no effective domestic legal procedures or remedies available to them, their imprisonment amounts to a de facto life sentence.
