It would not be right,indeed, if, under the pretext of applying this rule, certain commandants of places of internment made the punishmentmore severe by compulsory exercise, keeping the internees in the full sun or the snow for two hours at a stretch assometimes happened during the Second World War.”).482 GC art. 125 (“They shall be allowed, if they so request, to be present at the daily medical inspections.”). Refer to§ 10.14.1.3 (Monthly Medical Inspections).483 GC art. 125 (“They shall receive the attention which their state of health requires and, if necessary, shall beremoved to the infirmary of the place of internment or to a hospital.”).484 GC art. 125 (“They shall have permission to read and write, likewise to send and receive letters.”). Refer to§ 10.23.2 (Internees’ Correspondence Rights and Quota).485 GC art. 125 (“Parcels and remittances of money, however, may be withheld from them until the completion oftheir punishment; such consignments shall meanwhile be entrusted to the Internee Committee, who will hand over tothe infirmary the perishable goods contained in the parcels.”).486 GC art. 125 (“No internee given a disciplinary punishment may be deprived of the benefit of the provisions ofArticles 107 and 143 of the present Convention.”). Article 125 of the GC specifies Article 107 instead of Article101. However, considering (1) the legislative history; (2) the parallel provision in Article 98 of the GPW that refersto the right of making complaints; (3) the fact that the right to send or receive letters is already given in paragraph 3of Article 125 of the GC; and (4) the principles underlying the GC; “[i]t may therefore be deduced that the lastparagraph refers to Article 107 in error for Article 101.” GC COMMENTARY 497.712
