features of violent crimes qualification committed against employees of Penal system;
criminal law qualification of honor and dignity violation of employees of Penal system;
prevention of employees of Penal system non-service relations as a factor of ensuring staff safety of correctional institutions and pre-trial detention centers, etc.
The report of DCs (Law), Professor S. I. Gir'ko on criminal procedural means of protection of personnel working in penitentiary institutions and other persons who are in the location of correctional institutions, in cases of obviously false accusations, aroused special interest.
Summing up the results of the International conference sections' moderators announced the developed recommendations by participants to improve the criminal and penal legislation, practice of appointment and execution of criminal penalties, ensuring penitentiary security, personnel, psychological and pedagogical support of the FPS of Russia.
Thus, in order to improve the efficiency of the regime and supervision of convicts and persons in detention, it seems necessary to ensure normative regulation, including the procedural component, of certain aspects of the activities of officers for the prevention, suppression, detection and disclosure of crimes committed in Correctional Institutions. This need is due to the peculiarities of crimes investigation committed in institutions executing punishment in the form of imprisonment, the specifics of the stage of initiation of criminal proceedings. During the period of proceedings in criminal matters to persons among prisoners not only measures of criminal procedural actions are applied, but also measures of penal influence. In addition,
the results of operational-regime work, carried out by the administration of the correctional institution within the existing powers, can be used not only for preliminary examination or serve as a pretext for initiating a criminal case, but also for the preparation and implementation of investigative and judicial actions.
In order to solve organizational problems associated with supervision of persons prone to suicide and self-harm, it is proposed to involve persons, who have committed self-harm, not only to disciplinary responsibility for storage, production and use of prohibited items, but also to material (causing material damage). Besides to exclude detention of suspects, accused and convicts sentenced to imprisonment, prone to suicidal behavior and autoaggression, in punishment cells and detention centers without video control.
It was suggested to include in the Federal Law a new Standard "About the detention of suspects and accused in committing crimes". This Standard supplements the second paragraph of article 34, where it is set that the administration of detention centers have a right to inspect persons, their belongings, vehicles, as well as to seize prohibited things and documents on the territories adjacent to the Correctional institutions, in which regime requirements are established (by analogy with article 82 of Penal Code).
Participants of the conference paid attention to the need to develop and standardize the concept of "security in penal system", including the personnel safety of Penal system bodies and institutions; the safety of suspects, accused and convicts sentenced to imprisonment.
It was suggested to include in Chapter 17 of Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Crimes against freedom, honor and dignity of the person" a new component of crime that does not require the use of the sign of "publicity"- article 128.2 of Criminal Code "Insult by a person previously subjected to administrative punishment" in following words:
"Insult, that is, humiliation of another person honor and dignity, expressed in an inde-
cent form, committed by a person subjected to administrative punishment for a similar act, is punished by a fine up to forty thousand rubles or in the amount of wages or other income for a period up to three months, or compulsory work for a period up to two hundred and forty hours, or correctional labor for a period up to six months, or arrest for a period up to three months".
The inclusion of the specified formulation in the number of criminal acts will lead to the need for amendments to Administrative Offense Code of the Russian Federation in the part concerning the powers of authorities and institutions of Penal system to examine administrative offences cases. In this regard, it is proposed to change paragraph 5 of part 5 of article 28.3 of Administrative Offense Code of the Russian Federation, including the list of administrative offences for which officials of the bodies and institutions of Penal system have the right to make protocols, the composition of article 5.61 of Administrative Offense Code of the Russian Federation ("Insult").
During the discussion of legal regulation of convict's labor activities, strengthening their interest in employment, increasing of labor efficiency, participants suggested a method of convict's work evaluation based on their stimulation. Stimulation of convict's labor activity is supposed to be carried out on the basis of an assessment of their positive or negative attitude to work, which is determined by the indicators and coefficients of the labor contribution scale (LCS). Formation of the resulting indicator, characterizing the relation of the concrete convict sentenced to work, is carried out by summation of indicators values according to LCS.
The necessity of destructive manifestations prevention on the part of employees by strengthening the block of psychological and pedagogical disciplines (in particular, the introduction of a course on self-regulation of mental state) in the preparation (training) of employees engaged in direct interaction with convicts is also discussed.
In conclusion, the deputy chief of the personnel department of the FPS of Russia, colonel of the internal service A. A Pirogov highly valued the presented reports, noted the scientific and practical significance of such events,
which serve as a basis for a comprehensive and creative analysis of the complex problems arising in the practice of criminal penalties and contribute to the development of a constructive approach to their solution.
