metadata.value: In criminal proceedings, respect for the honor and dignity of the individual is considered as
  one of the fundamental principles of criminal proceedings, proclaimed as such in a separate
  article of the Criminal Procedural Code of the Russian Federation. At the same time, coercion is
  represented by the condition of attaining the objectives of criminal procedural activities. Based
  on the provisions of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the legislation of the Russian
  Federation, the decisions of the Сonstitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the provisions
  of international legal acts, first of all, the Convention on the Protection of Human Rights and
  Fundamental Freedoms of November 4, 1950, and the legal positions of the European Court of
  human rights, approaches to the distinction between the concept of “torture” and other forms
  of ill-treatment are analyzed. The Russian Federation has ratified a number of international treaties aimed at protecting against torture, some of which have been implemented in national legislation. However, the concept of “torture” and the difference between torture and other forms of ill-treatment are not disclosed in Russian legislation. This makes it difficult to assess the act
  correctly. Attention is drawn to the fact that the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights
  and Fundamental Freedoms of 4 November, 1950 strengthens the absolute and unconditional
  prohibition of torture. At the same time, the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and
  Fundamental Freedoms of 4 November 1950 article 3 merely distinguishes between “torture”,
  “inhuman treatment or punishment” and “degrading treatment or punishment”. In this regard,
  it is the analysis of the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights that allows us to get
  closer to their understanding. The analyzed approaches of the European Court of Human Rights
  do not contradict the concepts of “torture” and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or
  punishment, which are used in the text of a number of international acts. The analysis allows
  us to further understand such concepts as “cruel treatment”, “torture”, “inhuman treatment or
  punishment”, “degrading treatment or punishment” used in legislation and international legal
  acts. However, the author does not set as his goal an analysis of the criminal law aspects of the
  problem under consideration.
