(A long time later)

Hinami wrote in her journal that prison wasn't so bad. It's not an ideal place to be in and she knows she's going to die eventually, but compared to street life, the living conditions are stable. The prisoners get fed occasionally, have exercise time, are allowed to socialize, and Hinami's allowed to have books. Despite ghouls not having human rights, it's actually against regulations to cause a ghoul an excessive amount of pain. It's a rule that gets broken often, but I reckon in Cochlea, ghouls are normally tortured for information or when they're known for being particularly troublesome. We only know of three ghouls who were tortured in custody: Yamori, Aliza, and Yuuma. Aliza and Yuuma were tortured for information and Yamori, while it was for the shits and giggles, was already notorious for being violent so no one would bat an eye.

Ghouls like Hinami and Donato though seem to be treated relatively well because they're loaded with information and willingly share. It looks like so long as ghouls are considered well behaved and spill the beans without provocation, they're left alone.
