Restriction of freedom is a relatively new type of criminal punishment without isolating convicts from society, carried out by criminal executive inspections (hereinafter referred to as the penitentiary inspection) since 01/01/2010.

According to Art. 53 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, restriction of freedom consists in the court establishing the following restrictions for the convicted person: not to leave the place of permanent residence (stay) at a certain time of the day, not to visit certain places located within the territory of the corresponding municipal formation, not to travel outside the territory of the corresponding municipal formation, not to visit places of mass and other events and not to participate in these events, not to change the place of residence or stay, place of work and (or) study without the consent of the specialized state body supervising the serving of convicts sentences in the form of restriction of freedom, in cases provided for legislation of the Russian Federation.

In accordance with Art. 60 of the Penal Code of the Russian Federation, supervision over the serving of sentences by convicts in the form of restriction of freedom, carried out by the Penitentiary Inspectorate, consists of monitoring the behavior of convicts, their compliance with the restrictions established by the court and, if necessary, taking enforcement measures established by law.

Since the beginning of the application of punishment in the form of restriction of freedom in 2010, the number of people sentenced to this type of punishment has increased by 8.04 times.

Since the prevention of re-offending by those sentenced to non-custodial sentences is the most important area of activity of penal inspections, and the criminal activity of persons accountable to the correctional institute is one of the criteria for the effectiveness of the execution of sentences and measures of a criminal legal nature that are not related to isolation from society, we will further consider the indicators of unlawful behavior of persons who, by a court verdict for a socially dangerous act prohibited by the Criminal Code under threat of punishment, were assigned a measure of state coercion in the form of restriction of freedom.

Integral indicator of the level of repeated crime UCP for 2010-2014 for convicted persons to restriction of freedom as the main type of punishment was 2.9 (3,479 persons against whom criminal cases were initiated for crimes committed after registration with the Penal Inspectorate, out of 119,961 people registered from 2010 to 2014).

It is necessary to note the decrease in the proportion of persons sentenced to restriction of freedom, removed from the register of the penitentiary institute in connection with a conviction for committing a repeated crime (of the total number of persons sentenced to restriction of freedom, removed from the register of the penitentiary institute in the reporting period): from 5.74% in 2010 to 1.26% in 2014, i.e. by 4.48%.

The dynamics of the level of repeated crime during the analyzed period were not so unidirectional. An increase in the level of repeated crime in 2011 was observed among those sentenced to restriction of freedom as the main type of punishment to 2.62 (i.e., by 0.91% compared to 2010). By 2012, this indicator stabilized and amounted to 1.85, which is 0.77% lower than the level of 2011 (Figure 1). In 2013, the rates of repeat crime for those sentenced to this type of criminal punishment decreased by another 0.09% and amounted to 1.76. In 2014, the positive downward trend in the SMR of those sentenced to restriction of freedom continued, reaching a value of 1.56. For those sentenced to a penalty of restriction of freedom, the increase in repeat crime in 2011 is likely due to the “novelty factor”: this type of punishment began to be used on the territory of the Russian Federation only in 2010.

Rice. 1. Characteristicsconvicts serving sentences in the form of restriction of freedom

An analysis of the criminogenic composition of those sentenced to restriction of freedom allows us to identify the following trends: the total increase in the number of those sentenced to this type of punishment who have convictions under Articles 159 and 264 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which are characterized by a low SLR, amounted to 9,687 people (indicators of repeat crime rates for persons convicted according to Article 264 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the UPP was: in 2010 - 0.56, in 2011 - 0.38, in 2012 - 0.33, in 2013 - 0.36, in 2014 - 0.33. For convicted persons according to Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the UPP has the following values: in 2010 - 1.62; 2011 - 1.68; 2012 - 1.35; 2013 - 1.08, 2014 - 0.81) - data presented in table 1. An increase in the total share of those convicted under Article 105 and for grave and especially grave crimes (which are traditionally characterized by a high SMR) to criminal punishment in the form of restriction of freedom in 2014 compared to 2010 by 1.72% (or 4,519 person) is not so pronounced and therefore makes a significantly smaller contribution to the dynamics of re-offending of those sentenced to restriction of freedom. Thus, one of the reasons for the decrease in the SMR for this category of convicts in 2012–2014 is the change in judicial practice and, as a consequence, the criminogenic composition of convicts.

Another factor that predetermined the stabilization of the situation with repeated criminality of those sentenced to restriction of freedom is the use of electronic monitoring system equipment for controlled persons (SEMPL) for supervision and control over compliance by convicts with court-established restrictions when executing this type of punishment. According to Art. 60 of the Penal Code of the Russian Federation, penal inspections have the right to use audiovisual, electronic and other technical means of control in order to ensure supervision, prevent crimes and obtain the necessary information about the behavior of convicts. In the territorial bodies of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, electronic means of personal supervision and control were introduced into practice in the execution of punishment in the form of restriction of freedom in stages (from 2010 to 2012). The scope of application and positive experience of using SAMPL in the execution of punishment in the form of restriction of freedom expanded every year. In 2012, an electronic monitoring system for controlled persons was introduced into the activities of all FKU UII territorial bodies of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia.

Currently, the IUI uses an electronic bracelet complete with a stationary monitoring device and a mobile monitoring device. An electronic bracelet is attached to the leg of a person sentenced to restriction of freedom for the purpose of remote identification and tracking of his location, and has a built-in system for monitoring unauthorized removal and opening of the case.

A stationary control device is an electronic device installed in the home of a convicted person and providing continuous round-the-clock reception and identification of signals from an electronic bracelet to monitor presence in a room or on a designated territory, as well as notification of attempts to remove and damage the electronic bracelet and other violations. This control device performs the function of monitoring compliance with the court-imposed restriction not to leave the house at a certain time of day.

Mobile control device - an electronic device intended to be worn together with an electronic bracelet when a person sentenced to a penalty of restriction of freedom is outside places equipped with a stationary control device,

to track its location using signals from the global navigation satellite system GLONASS/GPS. The mobile control device notifies about attempts to remove or damage the bracelet and communicates with the regional monitoring server. This device provides control over the implementation of the following restrictions: do not travel outside the territory of the relevant municipality and do not change your place of residence (stay), place of work and (or) study; not to visit certain places located within the territory of the relevant municipality; not to visit places of mass and other events and not to participate in these events.

The choice of an electronic means of personal supervision and control is carried out by the employees of the correctional institute, depending on the restrictions imposed by the court and taking into account the personality of the convicted person.

The collection, storage and processing of information on the convicted person’s compliance with the restrictions established by the court, obtained using the equipment of the electronic monitoring system of controlled persons, is carried out by a regional monitoring server, including server, computer, communication equipment and full software. To organize access to information on the regional monitoring server for correctional inspection employees, each inspection is equipped with a stationary monitoring console, which is a personal computer with special software, as well as telecommunications equipment and tools.

Having the data accumulated since the beginning of the use of electronic monitoring systems for controlled persons, it is necessary to note a lower level of repeat crime among persons to whom the electronic monitoring system of controlled persons was used, compared with convicts to whom this equipment was not used.

Thus, according to departmental statistics, during 2014, 27,768 persons sentenced to restriction of freedom served their sentences using electronic means of personal supervision and control (that is, 42.30% of those sentenced to this type of punishment), which is 3,357 units, or 13.75% more than the same figure for the previous year: in 2013, 24,411 electronic means of personal supervision and control were applied to those sentenced to restriction of freedom (39.54% of convicts served restrictions of freedom using an electronic monitoring system for controlled persons). At the same time, at the beginning of 2013, 37.93% of those sentenced to a penalty of restriction of freedom (9,061 people out of 23,891 registered) were serving their sentences with the use of electronic means of control. Thus, the practice of using SAMPL equipment is steadily expanding, which has a positive impact on the dynamics of repeated crime for this category of convicts: according to 2013 data, the level of repeated crime for convicts sentenced to restriction of freedom who were serving a sentence using SAMPL was 1.25, while the same indicator for convicts serving a sentence of restriction of freedom without the use of electronic means of personal supervision and control amounted to 2.09 (out of 61,735 persons sentenced to restriction of freedom who were registered with the correctional institute in 2013, 24,411 people served their sentences using electronic means of personal control and supervision, of which 304 people committed a repeated crime after registration; out of 37,324 convicts who served their sentences without the use of SAMPL, criminal cases were initiated against 780 people for crimes committed after registration). If in the initial period the use of SAMPL equipment was somewhat selective (in particular, in a number of territorial authorities, one of the criteria when deciding on the use of electronic means of personal supervision and control was the financial situation of the person sentenced to restriction of freedom, namely his ability to compensate for material damage in the event of loss or damage to equipment), then the accumulation of experience in the use of SAMPL has made it possible to make the practice of using this equipment more universal, which determined a slight increase in the SMR of convicts serving a sentence of restriction of freedom using an electronic monitoring system for controlled persons in 2014, to 1.39; however, this indicator is still lower (by 0.29 percentage points) compared to the same indicator for convicts to whom SAMPL was not applied during the execution of this type of criminal punishment (1.68).

Thus, the proven effectiveness of the use of electronic means of personal supervision and control over those sentenced to restriction of freedom allows us to propose considering the feasibility of expanding the scope of application of SEMPL in order to prevent the commission of repeated crimes (to form in those sentenced to punishment without deprivation of liberty the conviction of the presence of constant supervision and recording their location ) and obtaining the necessary information about the behavior of those sentenced to other types of punishment that are not related to isolation from society.

The investigation is conducting fact-checks for those convicted.

The electronic tracking system monitors a person’s movements 24 hours a day, which makes it possible to use it to establish complete electronic control over the life of a convicted person during his stay under house arrest.
In 2010, in accordance with the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation, changes occurred in the penal system related to the appointment of alternative types of punishment. Using Western experience, Russia began to use electronic tracking bracelets.

Since 2009, an experiment has been conducted in three Russian regions on the use of electronic bracelets under the European Union program. Israeli-made equipment was purchased for the experiment.
In 2010, representatives of the Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN) stated that the implementation of a new method of control was very successful.

It is a complex of electronic devices, which includes an electronic bracelet and control devices that allow round-the-clock monitoring of all movements of the convicted person within the territory of the municipality.

The essence of the system is that, by a court decision, an electronic bracelet is put on the ankle of the person under control, and at the same time he is given a device similar to a TV remote control - a mobile control device.

A stationary monitoring device is located at the place of residence of the convicted person. It is this that allows you to monitor whether he leaves the house at a certain time of the day, whether he travels outside the designated territory, and so on. He always carries a mobile monitoring device with him. In this way, human movements can be controlled. These two devices provide continuous round-the-clock reception and processing of radio signals from an electronic bracelet. In this case, the mobile control device determines the location of the convicted person using GLONASS signals, and the stationary device provides information exchange via GSM channels. The entire process of monitoring the convict's compliance with the restrictions established for him is carried out automatically.

The electronic bracelet resembles a regular wristwatch, only more massive. It is recommended to wear it on the leg, under clothes; experience has shown that, for example, it can be removed from a woman’s hand.

The bracelet is made of durable material, completely sealed and waterproof, designed for long-term wear. Before putting on the electronic bracelet, the ankle is measured and the strap is adjusted to fit the leg so that there is room for the toe. Then, using a special tool, the lock clasp, which has special contacts, is compressed.

Each control device has an individual unique number, which is entered into the database and assigned to the person under control. This makes it possible to control what the convicted person does during the day.

The controlled person, however, is given a mandatory condition: the device must be located at a distance of no more than five meters from the owner of the bracelet (otherwise the signal connecting these two devices will disappear).

Control devices notify of all attempts to remove or damage the electronic bracelet, long-term absence of movement, leaving the security zone and other violations by the convicted person. Data about the location of the bracelet (and therefore about its owner) is sent online to the remote control of the FSIN department to which the convicted person is assigned. Even the smallest movements of the person under control are recorded by the computer and displayed on the monitor.

If the violator of the regime does not appear at the corrections department, this is equivalent to an escape with all the ensuing consequences.

The management of the penitentiary service believes that reprogramming or quietly removing the bracelet is an almost impossible task.

Electronic bracelets are intended for convicts whose punishment is not associated with deprivation of liberty in colonies or prisons and whose movement control is required, for example, for persons under house arrest. The court orders some offenders to restrict their movement within a specific municipality for the entire term of their sentence, others - only at night, and still others are prohibited from approaching certain objects, for example, schools, kindergartens. For each convicted person, operators set their own movement radius, beyond which they cannot go.

Laboratory SAMPLE

(electronic monitoring system for controlled persons)

One of the most important tasks outlined in the Concept for the Development of the Penitentiary System of the Russian Federation until 2020 is to expand the scope of application of punishments and measures not related to imprisonment. To reduce the likelihood of repeated crimes by those sentenced to non-custodial sentences, a system of electronic monitoring of controlled persons (SEMPL) is being introduced.
SAMPL is a set of means of personal supervision and control and technical means and devices of regional information centers that provide remote supervision of convicts and control of compliance with the restrictions prescribed to them through individual identification and monitoring of location in designated places.
The purpose of the operation of the SAMPL is to ensure that the territorial bodies of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia supervise convicts by collecting, accumulating, processing, storing and providing the Inspectorate with information on the implementation by controlled persons of the restrictions prescribed to them and monitoring their location.
When defining the set of means of personal supervision, the following concepts are introduced:

stationary control device - an electronic device that provides continuous round-the-clock reception and identification of signals from an electronic bracelet to monitor presence in a room or on an established territory, as well as notification of attempts to remove and damage the electronic bracelet and other violations;

mobile control device - an electronic device designed to be worn together with an electronic bracelet when the convicted person is outside places equipped with I&C, to track his location using signals from the global navigation satellite system GPS/GLONASS (hereinafter referred to as the GPS/GLONASS signal);

electronic bracelet - an electronic device worn on a convicted person for the purpose of remote identification and tracking of his location, intended for long-term wearing on the body (more than 3 months) and having a built-in system for monitoring unauthorized removal and opening of the case;

stationary monitoring console - a computer designed to process and display information about a convicted person’s compliance with prescribed restrictions.

Taking into account the increased need for the training of qualified personnel of the Inspectorate, having special professional competencies in the field of application of SAMPL, the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia made a decision to organize training for Inspector General Administration employees under the program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SEMPL operators” within the framework of advanced courses at the SUI of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. qualifications.
To accomplish this task, the department of management and information and technical support for the activities of the penal system, developed and approved by the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia work programs for advanced training of penitentiary system employees and educational and methodological complexes “Organizational-legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL operators”, “Organizational-legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL administrators.”
To ensure the material and technical base, a state contract was executed for the supply of equipment for SAMPL with the Federal State Unitary Enterprise TsITOS FSIN of Russia in the amount of 10,582,890 rubles.
At the Samara Law Institute of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, on the basis of the department of management and information and technical support for the activities of the penal system, the “SAMPLE Laboratory” was created, the purpose of which is to develop professional competencies among the employees of the penitentiary system in the field of application of SAMPL, the structure of which includes:

technical support room SAMPL, equipped with 16 SPM with pre-installed special software and information exchange equipment with a monitoring server;
SAMPL organizational and legal support office for 30 students;
a model of the living quarters of a controlled person for practicing practical skills in using SAMPLE.

Scientific developments are being carried out on the basis of the SAMPL Laboratory: organizational, technical and legal basis for the use of an electronic monitoring system for controlled persons; the impact of the use of electronic monitoring system equipment for controlled persons on the dynamics of repeated crime; an electronic monitoring system for those sentenced to forced labor to ensure supervision over them.
The material and technical base of the SAMPL Laboratory, the teaching staff who underwent training in the use of SAMPL equipment, and the availability of educational and methodological materials made it possible in 2012 to prepare 6 groups for the advanced training program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL operators” and 2 groups under the program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL administrators.” In total, 158 UII employees completed training in 2012.
On an initiative basis, in 2012, a training group of 28 5th year students was created for training in the field of “Electronic monitoring system for supervised persons” (operators). Operator training was carried out for 12 component bodies, from such regions as: Samara, Penza, Saratov, Volgograd, Pskov, Orenburg and Sverdlovsk regions, Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, Bashkortostan Republic, Tatarstan Republic, North Ossetia-Alania Republic, Komi Republic.
In addition, in November 2012, on the basis of the SAMPL Laboratory, a training seminar was held on the program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL operators,” in which 44 employees of the Federal Institution of the Institution of the Main Directorate of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia in the Samara region and 12 employees of the institute took part.
In 2013, 16 employees of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia were trained under the program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL administrators.”
Currently, 25 employees of the FKU UII GUFSIN of Russia in the Samara region are studying under the program “Organizational, legal and technical foundations of the activities of SAMPL operators.”
Close cooperation between the Specialized Institution of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia and the Federal Institution of the Institution of the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia in the Samara Region allows for the implementation of a model of practice-oriented training. A workplace for an employee of the criminal-executive inspection has been created on the basis of the Industrial Branch of the FKU UII GUFSIN of Russia in the Samara Region.
The SAMPL laboratory is a unique unit, on the basis of which training is provided for operators and administrators of the electronic monitoring system of controlled persons, and scientific activities are conducted on the problems of using SAMPL. Today, the SAMPL laboratory has no analogues in Russia.
In 2012, the Laboratory of the electronic monitoring system of controlled persons of the Samara Law Institute of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia was recognized as a laureate of the “100 Best Universities of Russia” competition in the “LABORATORY OF THE YEAR” category and was awarded an honorary diploma.

A new type of criminal punishment has appeared in Russia - house arrest. This became possible after the introduction of electronic tracking systems for human movements, such as the “electronic bracelet”. The electronic tracking system allows you to monitor a person’s movements 24 hours a day, which made it possible to use it to establish complete electronic control over the life of a convicted person during his stay under house arrest. The system of remote monitoring of convicts in many countries has become a common punishment for petty robbers, hooligans, and car thieves. The use of electronic tracking devices is possible because the person himself is interested in using them, since he does not want to go to prison. Several types of devices are used.

House arrest bracelet question?

House arrest is a rather specific measure of punishment for offenders, and therefore has a number of features that distinguish it from other types of deprivation:

The prisoner’s movement is monitored through an electronic bracelet, and the path is recorded on an electronic remote control at the police station.

How does a house arrest bracelet work? The movements of the arrested person are monitored around the clock and displayed on a map at the police station. An electronic bracelet worn on the ankle and a stationary device installed in a living room or hospital ward transmit a signal that is output to the controller.
It is impossible to remove this bracelet yourself. But if the signal disappears, the FSIN inspector will promptly arrive or call to find out the reason.

Electronic tracking system and bracelet device. reference

Recently, the Viru County Court released from custody 53-year-old Evgeniy Volin, who was sentenced to 12 years in prison for murder. Early release is not such in the literal sense of the word - the man was released under so-called electronic supervision, for 10 months he will wear a bracelet that is put on his ankle.

Attention

However, as those who have already passed the test say, removing it and escaping is a matter of three seconds. How does the electronic surveillance system work and should ordinary citizens be wary of criminals at large? “I’m under house arrest with an electronic ankle bracelet,” says Alexey.

“According to the conditions of detention, I do not have the right to even stick my nose out into the street.” Any movement outside the designated area – and an alarm signal is immediately sent to the remote control.”
Alexey follows instructions and does not break the rules.

How to safely remove a house arrest bracelet????

If the case is a criminal offense and jail time is replaced by electronic monitoring, a person's daily routine may indeed involve staying at home 24/7. In this case, the rules for such a conclusion are explained to the person in advance,” explains Riina Solmann. –

Info

If a probationary period is assigned, then it is possible to find time for work and study or job search, as well as for visits to the inspector. If a person lives alone, he may also have such opportunities.

In addition, if there are justifications, the inspector may authorize other activities.” But all this is only with a bracelet. It can be removed early only for medical reasons.
“The bracelet is equipped with various sensors that immediately sound an alarm whenever there is an attempt to remove or open it,” explains Riina Sohlmann.

House arrest as a preventive measure

If the request to apply the DA to the suspect/accused is rejected, then the judge, at his own discretion, taking into account good reasons and all the circumstances of Art. 99, has the right to set bail. The duration of “house punishment” is determined only by the court based on the arguments of the parties. When a person is accused of a minor violation, the maximum period of stay “under home lock and key” during the investigation is no more than 0.5 years. What prohibitions does house arrest provide? Taking into account the personality of the prisoner, the severity of the act committed and the details of the case, the judge imposes various restrictions and taboos:

to unhindered movement outside the place of residence, but walks may be allowed at times determined by the court;

Electronic bracelets from the Federal Penitentiary Service will be to blame for the abolition of house arrests

This fact, apparently, can be confirmed by one of the owners of this electronic forensic gadget, Evgenia Vasilyeva. In addition, electronic bracelets are afraid of water and temperature changes.

Going out into the cold is a problem. Taking a shower is an even bigger problem. The bracelets do not have protection against opening and removal, which those sentenced to wear them can happily take advantage of, notes member of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation Maria Kannabikh: “Our Russians, like Lefty, can quickly remove all the necessary parts from the bracelet and free this bracelet from the “unnecessary” ones. parts.

We have this too, don’t forget about it. They can put a bracelet on a dog’s paw and so on.” Electronic bracelets have a big problem with their battery, which is disposable and irreplaceable.

When she sits down, the gadget simply malfunctions. It is also impossible to find out about a drop in charge, because there is no corresponding sensor.

Electronic tracking system and electronic bracelet device

When you try to remove the bracelet, a violation signal appears on the screen of the tracking monitor. The device is designed for operation at temperatures up to 100 degrees Celsius; its tightness allows it to be immersed in fresh and salt water up to 5 meters for up to 15 minutes.

This gives the convict the opportunity to visit the bathhouse and sauna. The device operates in three modes - radio communication, satellite tracking and a combination of these two. If the convicted person is at home, a stationary radio transmitter operates, similar to a telephone without buttons. An operator can contact the convicted person at any time through it.

Important

As soon as you leave the house, the radio signal disappears and the one on your belt turns on - GPS. There are also modifications of the bracelet with a built-in satellite tracking system.

The bracelet is coded to a certain distance from the prisoner’s home - he is prohibited from going further than this border.

to visit certain places, especially entertainment ones, or visiting such places is permissible, but only with the permission of the court and at any specified time;
on contacts with persons whose meetings may affect the conduct of the criminal case, while the person is allowed to communicate with relatives, investigators, and lawyers;
on postal and communication services, in particular a ban on using the telephone and the World Wide Web, although the exception is the need to call an ambulance, police, emergency response, and, in addition, a conversation with a controller, interrogator or investigator, but about each such “session” the prisoner informs the controller.

Changes in restrictions/prohibitions are carried out by a judge at the request of the prisoner himself, his legal representative or lawyer, as well as an investigator or interrogating officer.

How to disable a house arrest bracelet

That is, with this bracelet, the person under surveillance cannot even wash himself normally. In addition, the device begins to malfunction if the room temperature rises above room temperature. The installation of the lock, according to experts, also does not stand up to criticism. It turns out that the bracelet is secured not with a special tool, but with ordinary pliers. “Moreover, for unauthorized disposal of the bracelet, no devices are needed; it is enough to cut the strap with ordinary scissors,” experts explain. The designers planned that the device would signal if the integrity of the strap was broken, but the strap can be easily disassembled and the contacts can be re-soldered so as to lengthen the strap and remove the bracelet. As soon as the “client” removes the bracelet and he remains motionless for a long time, the operator should, in theory, receive a signal. However, as experts emphasize, the equipment does not transmit such a signal.

The remaining devices have a more complex configuration; they can be divided into three main types. The first is a control device via telephone line.

This model consists of a base station and a lightweight electronic bracelet, thanks to which a person can move freely within a small radius from the station. The receiving device is installed at the place of residence of the convicted person and requires periodic recharging. The purpose of the device is to record the time a person enters and leaves the premises and registers offenses committed by him related to non-compliance with the schedule or attempts to damage the device. The principle of operation of an electronic device for monitoring a prisoner is simple.

While within the range of the “base” field, the prisoner cannot leave these limits. As soon as he crosses the border, the device immediately sends a signal to the phone and computer of the supervising inspector.

A specially trained operator controls the signal at his computer console. The offender receives a message to the receiver: “You have exceeded the permissible distance.

Come back immediately!” The supervised person is immediately obliged to confirm receipt of the information by pressing a button and eliminate the violation. If this does not happen, an alarm is sounded, a squad goes out to pick up the person, and the criminal executive inspector decides what sanctions to apply - up to replacing the suspended sentence with a real one.

Bracelets also have disadvantages: it is problematic to wash with a bracelet, since it shields from the cast-iron bathtub; It is impossible to play football with him. The technique regards any blow as an attempt to escape.

In recent years, this type of punishment has become increasingly popular. In the US, electronic monitoring is used in 49 out of 50 states.

In Europe, the first countries to use electronic “house arrest” were the Nordic countries.

In case of violation of a lighter measure (subscription).

Military personnel, citizens of Russia who do not have their own living space, foreigners and stateless persons are not subject to maintenance under DA, which is due to their lack of permanent place of residence in Russia. Bail and house arrest If the request to apply the DA to the suspect/accused is rejected, then the judge, at his own discretion, taking into account good reasons and all the circumstances of Art.

99, has the right to set bail. Duration of house arrest The duration of “house punishment” is determined only by the court based on the arguments of the parties. When a person is accused of a minor violation, the maximum period of stay “under home lock and key” during the investigation is no more than 0.5 years. For crimes with the index “severe” and higher, arrest can last up to one and a half years, and in individual situations – even longer.
