CONSOLIDATED REPORT
and conditions of detention
of suspects and accused
persons in pre-trial detention
centers is the Law of the
Republic of Kazakhstan dated
March 30, 1999 No.353-I “On
the procedure and conditions
of detention of persons
in special institutions that
provide temporary isolation
from society” (hereinafter
referred to as Law No.353).
The Orders of the Minister
of the Interior, the Prosecutor
General
and
derivative
regulations in this area
should not contradict with
the Correctional Code RoK,
the Criminal Procedure Code
of the Republic of Kazakhstan
and the Law of the Republic
of Kazakhstan No.353.
The
study
of
law
enforcement practice shows
that the Law of the Republic
of Kazakhstan No.353 does
not regulate all public
relations arising during the
execution of detention in
respect of suspects and
accused, and this forces them
to apply to the norms of the
Correctional Code RoK. It
seems that all issues relating
to the detention of persons
in
special
institutions,
59
which provide temporary
isolation from society in
the Correctional Code RoK,
should be resolved. To this
end, it might be necessary to
provide a new Section 7 in the
Correctional Code RoK “The
procedure and conditions
for the detention of persons
in special institutions that
provide temporary isolation
from society”.
In 2018, NPM members
conducted 33 visits to the
pre-trial detention centers,
of which: 11 regular, 13
intermediate, and 9 special.
The staff of the pretrial detention centers are
generally aware of the
activities of NPM and often
there are no issues with
unimpeded access to the pretrial detention center. We can
only note that in Kostanay
oblast during a special visit
on February 9, 2018 it took
NPM members 40 minutes
for clearance, they had to
wait for permission to visit.
The NPM members noted
in the report that the junior
staff of this institution has no
idea about the NPM concept.
