UDK 343.8 Исполнение наказания. Предупреждение преступлений
The article identifies and analyzes the provisions of penal and other legislation that provide unnecessarily wide discretion or the possibility of choosing opposite decisions by correctional officers and judges when assessing the behavior of a person sentenced to imprisonment. It is concluded that the imperfection of penal enforcement and other legislation is a corruption-causing factor mainly when imposing penalties on a convicted person, changing the conditions of serving a sentence, recognizing him as a malicious violator of the established procedure for serving a sentence, as well as resolving the issue of his parole or replacing the unserved part of the punishment with a milder type of punishment.
