The bullpen is a cell of preliminary detention. Explanation and purpose

What does the bullpen mean? Decipher this abbreviation can be as follows: a pre-trial detention center. Now this term was replaced by a new name. Now instead of the bullpen use the abbreviation IVS (temporary detention facility).

Bullpen: decoding

The police (although it would be more correct to say - the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia) has in its composition a special institution intended for temporary detention of persons. Now the special detention centers are called IVS. As already mentioned earlier, the bullpen is a cell of preliminary detention. However, the new name in the people did not stick, and the term "bullpen" is still more common.

What are IVS?

Temporary detention facilities are places of detention of persons suspected of committing a crime. These citizens are temporarily placed in special cells attached to territorial bodies of internal affairs. IVS does not apply to separate independent structures of ATS, the bullpen is a camera located in the internal affairs bodies. The isolator is a special institution, which is part of the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. What is the difference between IVS and SIZO? First of all, they are subordinated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and not to the Federal Penitentiary Service.

The legal basis for the activity of temporary detention facilities is Art. 91 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. It deals with the detention of the victim, which is a measure of procedural coercion, and not a preventive measure. If the person is imputed detention, then it must be placed in the remand center.

Duration of stay

The detainee can stay in the IVS (bullpen) no more than 48 hours. The accused, who was put on the wanted list and subsequently discovered, can also be placed in the IVS. Detention begins from the moment when the person is deprived of the right to dispose of himself, the term itself is counted from the time of delivery to the investigator or investigator and can not exceed 2 days. Upon his expiration, the suspect should be sent to the SIZO, arrested or released, and the court can extend the term of stay in the ITT for a maximum of 72 hours. During the detention, a protocol is drawn up, which must be signed by the suspect and the person who compiled it.

It is worth noting that the bullpen - this is also a camera, where people can be held, in relation to whom such a measure of restraint was chosen, as imprisonment. This happens in those cases when investigative actions are conducted outside the settlements where there are pre-trial detention facilities. The maximum stay in them in this case is limited to ten days a month.

Need to stay in the bullpen

The person who committed the crime is isolated from society by placing in appropriate correctional institutions. Until then, the investigative and investigative authorities have been carrying out a large amount of work to then transfer the case to a court that must issue a resolution on arrest or, on the contrary, release the detainee. All the time that will be spent on such activities, a person suspected of a crime must be kept under guard. For this reason, you can get into the bullpen, because they are created precisely for this purpose. It should be noted that in the cells there may be those who are serving an administrative punishment within 15 days.

Conditions of detention

The detention in the prison is reminiscent of prison conditions, that is, the detainees are in closed cells that restrict their freedom. Often there are no sanitary devices, from the whole situation here you can find only sleeping places. The conditions of detention are quite strict: the movement without an escort is not allowed, and at night the cameras are illuminated until dawn comes. Activities such as cultural leisure, walks and other benefits are not provided because of the short stay in the ITT. They can be realized if equipped premises are provided. What does the bullpen look like? The photo, which is presented below, demonstrates the conditions for the detainees to stay in it.

IVS with improved conditions

In the cells of the police departments are often not enough for all detained places, especially this is observed on weekends and holidays. The same IVS, which is larger in size and located in the corresponding buildings or basements, as usual, are deprived of this shortcoming and equipped with all the most necessary. In such insulators there are sanitary devices and accessories for washing, exhaust and exhaust ventilation, lamps, radio speakers, wardrobes for clothes and wash basins, a pot of drinking water, a call button for the duty officer and others. Each prisoner is given an inventory and items for cleaning in the cell, laundry soap, board games, periodicals, sewing items.

Admission of detainees

It is conducted every day, regardless of the time of day. First, a survey should be conducted of the subject who entered the ITT, namely, the verification of accompanying documents and identity cards and their compliance with his testimony. In the event that there are bodily injuries, an appropriate act is issued. If the detainee needs medical assistance, he is hospitalized, accompanied by police officers.

When admission to the bullpen (IVS) is carried out fingerprinting, thorough personal examination, photographing. The things of the detainee are disinfected, and he himself goes to the shower or bath.

The regime of detention and the rights of detainees

A bullpen is a cell in which the detainee spends most of the time, but there are a number of cases when the subject in the cell can leave her: a meeting with a lawyer, a daily walk in the presence of an equipped territory, a meeting with relatives or relatives, with the permission from the body Inquest or investigation, the reception of a hot shower or bath, participation in investigative measures.

The activities of the IVS presuppose various maintenance regimes: there are distinctions on the joint content of the subjects. There should not be men and women who are both convicted and suspected of committing a crime for the first time who have committed misconduct and recidivists, criminals and employees of power structures, those who are in the same criminal case or in related cases. In addition, subjects who are suspected of committing serious crimes are also subject to separate content in the ITT. If there is an appropriate order of the prosecutor, a mother with an infant may be in the temporary detention facility, in which case special conditions are organized.

Getting gears

As for the transfers, their number is not limited, the main thing is that two conditions are met: the list of items and items to be shipped should not include prohibited items, and the total weight should not exceed 30 kg, but the last point does not apply to a number of categories of detainees. Among them - minors, pregnant women or women with an infant, and also having a serious illness.

When receiving items, they are weighed and searched. To those persons who are charged with the content in the punishment cell due to conduct, the receipt of broadcasts at this time is prohibited. When meeting with a lawyer or relatives taking things is not allowed.
