Soleiman Faqiri was murdered by jail guards in an Ontario jail in December of 2016 after an altercation with a neighbour. Soli, as his family called him, had schizoaffective disorder, and a judge had ordered him to be transferred from jail to an appropriate hospital. Before that could happen, Soli had his hands and feet bound, his face covered by a spit hood, and endured over 50 bruises and other injuries from jail guards, causing his death - which was ruled a homicide. A government inquiry found numerous violations of procedure in Soli's treatment and issued a report with recommendations for the better treatment of mentally-ill prisoners. 2 years later, none of the recommendations have been followed and none of the guards who beat Soli to death have been charged in his murder.
