How are transfers made?
In order for persons held in temporary detention facilities to have the opportunity to meet their needs, it is possible for them to receive parcels from relatives or other persons. However, their number is not limited.
However, the total weight of the gears cannot exceed 30 kg. per month. In addition, it is prohibited to transfer prohibited items.
The weight limit requirements do not apply to gears that are transmitted:
- minors;
- having medical documents confirming that such a person has a serious illness;
- women who are pregnant or are holding a baby in their arms.
In addition to food and household items, minors have the right to receive:
- educational literature;
- teaching aids;
- stationery necessary for continuing education.
All transfers are subject to verification, which is carried out by the temporary detention facility on duty.
Important! Persons who were placed in a punishment cell for violating the rules of detention are prohibited from receiving parcels. After serving the sentence and being transferred to a general cell, the possibility of receiving parcels is resumed.
It should be borne in mind that during a meeting with a lawyer or relatives, any transfers are prohibited. If such a fact is recorded, the meeting is immediately terminated, and everything transferred is subject to confiscation.
Transfers between cells - between persons detained in them - are also prohibited without obtaining the appropriate permission from the administration of the detention center. However, the transfer of counterfeit and prohibited products and items is prohibited.
If such facts are established, disciplinary measures will be applied to those found guilty among those detained.
Who is placed in a temporary detention facility?
Temporary detention centers, which are available in the structure of regional police units, are intended to contain the following categories of persons:
- whose procedural status is determined as suspected of committing a crime;
- who were put on the wanted list and detained until the question of their future fate was resolved;
- in respect of whom the court applied administrative punishment in the form of administrative arrest for up to 15 days;
- who are under investigation and trial, if their daily transportation to the pre-trial detention center and back is impractical.
Important! To place a person suspected of committing a crime in a temporary detention center, the following conditions must be met:
- a citizen is detained by police officers directly during the commission of a criminal offense or immediately after its commission;
- the detainee was identified by citizens and eyewitnesses of the crime as a person who committed a criminal offense;
- there are marks on the suspect’s clothing indicating that he committed a crime;
- At the place of residence of the detainee, objects were found that indicate belonging to the crime committed.
What is a temporary detention facility?
Attention! The temporary detention center, which exists within the structure of the relevant department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is designed to solve the following tasks:
- isolation from society of a person who has become dangerous as a result of committing a criminal offense;
- detention of citizens for committing administrative offenses when such a penalty is determined by the court.
Individuals who are detained as suspects by investigators and inquiry workers are placed in temporary detention facilities. After a preventive measure in the form of detention is chosen against such persons, they are transferred to pre-trial detention centers that are subordinate to the penitentiary service.
Thus, temporary detention centers are intended to contain persons who are detained on time and immediately after the commission of a crime. At the same time, transferring them to a pre-trial detention center until a preventive measure is chosen is prohibited.
