Detention, as a measure of procedural coercion and difficulties associated with the detention of a suspect (accused)

The author considers the legal consequences of detention as a measure of procedural compulsion, and the problems associated with the detention of a suspect (accused). Based on the norms of the criminal procedure code of the Russian Federation, from the moment of practical detention, a person does not automatically acquire the full status of a suspect. This status is granted to a person only if an authorized official issues a procedural act in the form of a report on the suspect's detention, which should be considered his actual detention. At the same time, in practice, the rights and freedoms of a suspect are restricted until the moment of actual detention, which creates significant difficulties for compliance with the norms of criminal procedure legislation by officials conducting preliminary investigations. These restrictions also affect the right to freedom and personal integrity of the detained person, as well as the right to protection
