The official recognition of a person very guilty of an indictable offence the court verdict on the accused cannot treat him as guilty. Publicly, the media or official documents, it cannot be argued that the suspect is a criminal. The name of the individual who is detained is suspected or accused of committing a crime, may be issued only when the entry into legal force court verdict against her. In the decisions of the ECHR “Fatulaev against Azerbaijan”, “Dovzhenko against Ukraine”, “Allenay de Rìbemon against France” the Court determines that the presumption of innocence prohibit representatives of power prematurely to express an opinion concerning the culpability of a person before it is proven in judicial proceedings.
