Abstract

The article analyzes domestic and foreign criminal legislation regulating the execution of punishment in the form of arrest. Scientific points of view regarding the issues of regulation and execution of arrest in Russia are evaluated. Modern problems of execution of arrest are defined and ways of their solution are offered. The author's position on the essence of the arrest and its distinctive features is given. The authors conclude that in modern Russia, one of the important aspects that contribute to the formation of the system of punishments is the internal and external economic conditions. It is argued that it is impractical to exclude arrest from the system of criminal penalties. The conclusion is made that the arrest is not executed, as it goes against the modern penal policy. Separate amendments to the criminal and penal enforcement legislation are proposed. It is argued that in modern conditions it is necessary to provide for the execution of punishment in the form of arrest in pre-trial detention centers.
