On the rights and interests of citizens

A completely new law “On the order of serving an administrative arrest” may appear in the legislative base of the republic. The initiative was initiated by a group of deputies of the Committee on Legislation. The law-in-draft is based on the generally recognized principles and norms of international law in protection of human and civil rights and freedoms. Today, the procedure for serving an administrative arrest is governed by relevant provision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, adopted back in 2002. Parliamentarians consider the existing norms to be outdated and not in accordance with the norms of international law.

The proposed document provides for the supervision of the administration of the administrative serving places. In addition, in the event of a law being adopted, the executive authorities will have to draw up regulatory legal acts regarding the definition of food standards for persons under administrative arrest, as well as their medical examination. The initiative was unanimously supported by members of the Committee. Deputies will make the final decision.

Amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code are Actual, according to the deputies of the relevant committee. Deputies of the Committee developed it. The document deals with establishment of a one-year period during which the prosecutor or the head of the investigative body has the right to cancel the decision to terminate the criminal case. Today, the time frame has not been established at all, and this gives the right to the heads of the supervisory agencies at any time to cancel a rendered illegal decree.
