Responsibility for domestic violence in the new legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic
The article examines criminological problems and problems of law enforcement of the new norms of the Criminal Code and the Code of Offenses on Domestic Violence. The lack of a unified record and a unified methodology for recording domestic violence in legal statistics has led to the fact that different statistics are being compiled in the law enforcement and supervisory authorities of the country, which makes it impossible to build a unified criminal policy to counter this phenomenon. The new legislation created a multi-stage liability for domestic violence, but it did not take into account possible cases of conflicts between the norms of criminal law. The article substantiates the incorrect legislative approach to the formation of the disposition of articles providing for liability for domestic violence. There is still no common understanding regarding the distinction between domestic violence as an offense and domestic violence as a criminal act. This led in practice to a number of problems both in qualification and in the sentencing process. Lost effectiveness in preventing domestic violence in society. In this regard, it is proposed to make appropriate changes to the Criminal Code and the Code of Offenses of the Kyrgyz Republic.
