The Supreme Court plenum proposes “to provide for the possibility of choosing a measure of restraint in the form of detention with regard to those suspected and accused of committing crimes of medium gravity, only when those crimes are of a violent nature. “

Themis considers it necessary to introduce a new gradation of crimes in the Code of Criminal Procedure. Now they differ only in the degree of severity of the consequences. In art. 5 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is now proposed to consolidate the concepts of violent and non-violent crimes. “Nonviolence” would mean a crime committed without violence or the threat of violence. These violations include traffic accidents with casualties.

Now law enforcement agencies very often purely automatically send a suspect under arrest in an accident where people have been injured. Even if he doesn’t think about hiding or interfering with the investigation.

The Supreme Court proposes to place a suspect of a non-violent crime in a pre-trial detention center only in the following cases: he has no fixed place of residence or residence in the Russian Federation, his identity has not been known, he has violated a previously chosen restraint, or the citizen has tried to hide from the investigative authorities and the court.
