Review

The article deals with the problems of appealing for the detention in criminal proceedings on the basis of analysis of the norms of the current criminal procedural legislation of Ukraine and judicial practice. It is proved that the appealing for detention is actually implemented by a defense party during the pre-trial investigation in accordance with the article 206 of the Criminal Procedure Code, which defines general duties of a judge for the protection of human rights or during preparatory proceedings in court.

In case of initiation of the verification of the legality of the detention by filing a petition (complaint, application) by the defense party it can be considered both in a separate court session and directly during the consideration of the request by the investigating judge about the application of preventive measure to the suspect by investigator, prosecutor in accordance with the article 206 of the Criminal Procedure Code. It was concluded that the investigating judge is obliged to consider the complaint of the defense party against the illegal detention regardless of the existence of the competent court’s decision on the application of a preventive measure or the release of a person in custody. Otherwise, such complaints remain out of the judicial control, what is the basis for continuation of violations in this area.

The study of the judicial practice of appealing for the detention during the preparatory proceedings in the court allows to state a reduction in its effectiveness, in comparison with the appealing for the detention during the pre-trial investigation. This situation is explained, above all, by the imperfection of the mechanism for handling complaints during the preparatory proceedings, what leads to the unequal judicial practice on their solution.
