English term

suicide watch

Homework / test English to Portuguese Law/Patents Law (general)
I saw this expression relating to Dominic Strauss Khan, when the press said that he was under "suicide watch" and would like to know how exactly you translate into Portuguese. In short it is when a prisoner is on "suicide watch"
