On May 16th the Committee on Criminal and Criminal Procedural Law of the Bar Association of Ukraine held a session to discuss application of Law No. 7275 “On Amending Some Legislative Acts on Observance of Human Rights of Criminal Proceedings Participants and Other Persons by Law Enforcement Agencies at Pre-Trial Investigation”, which is also known as “Mask-show stop”.
The event, which was attended by representatives of judicial authorities and attorneys of leading law firms, discussed such issues as history and problems of last amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code, novelties of the Code and current practice of the amendments application.
Legal Alliance Company was represented by counsel and attorney Taras Bezpalyy, who pointed the possibility of abolishing the notice of suspicion.
“The lawmaker entitled the defendant to challenge the notice of suspicion, however advocates, besides practicing, should decide at which stage they should challenge the notice of suspicion, since in case of its abolishment by the ruling of an investigative judge, the investigator has the right to issue the suspicion again with corrections, which will not be good for the client at the pre-trial investigation stage”, said Mr Bezpalyy.
