Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
According to the Federal law of December 22, 2008 No. 261-FZ «About introduction of amendments to the Penal Code of the Russian Federation» were made changes to the p. 9 of Art. 74 of the Penal Code of the Russian Federation according which the age of the persons left in juvenile correctional facilities has been reduced from 21 to 19 years. But the analysis of law-enforcement practice of this law has shown his obvious gaps. In particular, the motivation of convicts to right obedient behavior has decreased and also violations of the rights to the general and professional education take place.The arisen lag in training can be ineradicable for many convicts. Thus, the transfer from juvenile correctional facilities to «adult» correctional facilities can actually deprive or, at least, violate the right of the considered category of convicts for education.Besides, transfer of convicts to «adult» correctional facility is inadmissible irrespective of achievement of majority as being in educational colony the specified person in many respects has stopped contacts with adult persons in this connection sharp change of age of surrounding his faces can lead to negative consequences.
