The EU one has several huge gaping loopholes. For example, Article 5 says everyone has the right to liberty and security of person - unless the person is a "vagrant". And the classification of "vagrant" is left to be defined by individual nations.
So, if systemic discrimination means an identifiable group is underhoused or underemployed, or meets some arbitrary local definition such as not owning sufficient real estate for a sufficiently long residency period, it would be allowable to indefinitely imprison that group.
I suppose the lesson learned is that any guiding document can be gamed and lawyered, and abused by people acting in bad faith.
