REVISION OF LIFE IMPRISONMENT AND THE PRACTICE OF THE EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS
Journal Title: Актуальні проблеми вітчизняної юриспруденції - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 6
Abstract
Prolonged deprivation of liberty, including life imprisonment, without a legitimate reduction procedure is not humane and is contrary to fundamental human rights in the meaning of the European Court of Human Rights. The practice of replacing life imprisonment by deprivation of liberty in the form of pardon in Ukraine is not entirely consistent with the position of the ECtHR, in particular because there is no clear legal mechanism for reviewing the decision to impose a life imprisonment within a certain period of time. Consequently, need to justify the mandatory review of life imprisonment within a certain period.
