In the instance, if a person who committed a socially dangerous act in condition of insanity or has
acquired a mental disease before rendering a sentence or during serving thereof, and therefore is
unable to recognize a significance of his actions and direct them, and, by his mental state and
nature of the act committed is dangerous for a society, a court may apply compulsory medical
measures.
Article 93. Types of Compulsory Medical Measures
Compulsory medical measures shall be:
a) compulsory out-patient supervision and psychiatric treatment;
b) compulsory in-patient treatment in a psychiatric institution of a general type;
c) compulsory in-patient treatment in a psychiatric institution of a general type with placing to
an after-care ward;
d) compulsory treatment in a psychiatric institution with intensive supervision.
Article 94. Application of Compulsory Medical Measures
Compulsory out-patient supervision and psychiatric treatment may be applied to mentally diseased
persons not manifesting exasperation of the disease, as well as to persons, who suffered from a
temporary mental disorder, for prevention of recidivism and commission of new socially dangerous
acts.
Compulsory in-patient treatment in a psychiatric institution of a general type may be applied to
mentally diseased persons, whose social danger is connected with a state requiring treatment that
may be applied on general procedure.
Compulsory in-patient treatment in a psychiatric institution of a general type with placing to an
after-care ward may be applied to mentally diseased persons, whose social danger is connected
with a state requiring predominantly after-care measures that may not be applied voluntarily.
Compulsory treatment in a psychiatric institution with an intensive supervision may be applied to
mentally diseased persons of a particular social danger, whose behavior impedes application of
necessary medical and after-care measures in a psychiatric institution of a general type. In
psychiatric institution or ward with an intensive supervision, mentally diseased persons shall be
strictly isolated and guarded.
Article 95. Extension, Altering, and Discontinuation of Application of Compulsory Medical
Measure
Extension, altering, and discontinuation of application of compulsory medical measure shall be
decided by a court on the grounds of an opinion of a commission of forensic psychiatrists.
In the instances, when a mentally diseased person does not need application of compulsory medical
measures, or discontinuation thereof, the court may commit a person to health care agencies for
consideration of a matter of treatment on general grounds or commit him to social welfare agencies.
