Specialized training ground with the system “Custody Records” on the basis of the National Academy of Internal Affairs
Thanks to the successful implementation of the pilot project “Custody Records” in the territorial police units, on the basis of the National Academy of Internal Affairs with the support of the Consultative Mission of the European Union and the Office of Human Rights Compliance, the NPU created a training ground equipped on a modern model with approximation to the realities of service in practice.
“It is important for us that the training of future police officers takes place at the highest level. Implementation of such modern projects for us is one of the priorities. At the training ground, cadets under the guidance of experienced teachers can work out algorithms for handling detainees and conducting procedural actions,” said Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Kateryna Pavlichenko.
The system “Custody Records” provides round-the-clock video and audio verification of the stay of detainees in police units. The implementation of such systems minimizes the human factor and contributes to the effective protection of the rights of detainees from illegal actions by police officers, and law enforcement officers from possible provocations by detainees.
Currently, Custody Records has been implemented in 19 units of the National Police of Ukraine.
The system was implemented: Ternopil region - 1, Rivne region - 4, Volyn - 3, Kyiv region - 1, Chernihiv region - 2, Sumy region - 2, Vinnichina - 3, Kharkiv region - 1, Donetsk region - 1, Kirovohrad region - 1.
Recall that the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Ekaterina Pavlichenko stressed that the observance of human rights is a fundamental principle of the activity of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
