As claimed by the majority (41.9%) of those detainees who know that a defence lawyer should participate in a criminal case to protect their interests, they saw their lawyers only once in court when pre-trial restrictive measures were selected by the judge. Diagram 25. When a detainee met with his/her lawyer for the first time From a monitoring group report: “Two detainees, one of whom has been detained for two days and the other one for three days, have not seen their lawyers even a single time.”79 From a monitoring group report: “I saw my defence lawyers when the investigation was over.”80 In the majority of cases (54.5%), defence lawyers are assigned by an investigator. Diagram 26. Grounds for lawyer’s participation When observers were asking about the quality of assistance provided by defence lawyers, almost every third respondent said that they were dissatisfied with the work of their lawyers. Half of those in detention are satisfied with the work of their lawyers. The remaining 18% of respondents found it difficult to answer this question. 79 80 Monitoring group report, No. 2-13.
