Holiday Day of the operative worker of the penitentiary system. Day of the operational officer of the penitentiary system (Day of the operational officer of the penitentiary system) Congratulations on the day of the operational officer of the penitentiary system

On the territory of the Russian Federation, the Day of the operative worker of the penitentiary system is usually celebrated on the eighth of May annually. The professional holiday of the penitentiary system was created for people who are involved in ensuring the safety of personnel in correctional organizations and prisoners held there. This date is also considered to be theirs by those who are looking for bandits who are hiding or who have escaped, who warns and investigates crimes that were organized in places of deprivation of liberty.

history of the holiday

The date is not fixed at the official level, because May 8 is not included in the list of memorable dates in our country. This holiday is not a day off. The celebration is celebrated exclusively in a professional environment and is informal. The day for this holiday was not chosen spontaneously. The date is dedicated to the creation of units that perform the penitentiary function. In 1935 the foundation of this system was laid. The memorable event took place on May 8. That is why the holiday was appointed on this date and is celebrated in a professional environment.

The importance of the celebration lies in emphasizing the significance and complexity of the work of the penitentiary staff. With their help, operational activities involving danger have been successfully carried out for several decades. Representatives of this sphere secretly receive important information from prisoners regarding committed and upcoming crimes.

An important milestone was the adoption of the law "On the Enactment of the Criminal Executive Code of the Russian Federation" in December 1996. It has been fully operational since July 1, 1997. Since In 1996, when the Russian Federation became a full-fledged Council of Europe, a moratorium on the use of the death penalty began to operate in the country, and life imprisonment became an alternative.

May 8 employees of the operational units of the penitentiary system (UIS) of Russia celebrate their professional holiday.

This structure dates back to 1925, when the secret department of the United State Political Administration (OGPU) was entrusted with secret operational work in political isolators. However, May 8, 1935 is considered the official day of the creation of the operational units of the UIS.

Operatives of the penitentiary system are engaged in the investigation and prevention of crimes in places of serving sentences, as well as the search for criminals who have escaped or evaded punishment.

1701 - the famous leader of the pirates, Captain William Kidd, appeared before the Old Bailey criminal court (the street where the court was and still is called). The Supreme Judicial Collegium of the Admiralty sentenced him to hang, and on May 23 he was executed.

1794 - Antoine Lavoisier, a French scientist, the father of modern chemistry, was executed on charges of corruption (before the execution, he asked for a little time to complete the experiment, but he was refused).

1918 - creation of the Soviet courier service.

1918 - the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars "On Bribery" was issued - the first legal act in Soviet Russia that provides for criminal liability for bribery in the form of imprisonment for a term of at least five years. It is curious that in the decree an attempt to receive or give a bribe was equated to a crime committed. The class approach was not forgotten either: if the bribe giver belonged to the propertied class, then he was sentenced "to the most difficult and unpleasant forced labor", and all the property of the convict was subject to confiscation.

1939 - during the trial, which lasted 5 minutes, the Soviet General A. Gorbatov, commander of the cavalry corps, was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

1952 - A trial of the leaders of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee began in Moscow. This committee, created in August 1941, carried out active work to form world public opinion against the atrocities of fascism. In November 1948 it was dissolved, and a large group of people associated with its work were arrested. Among them: S.A. Lozovsky, I.S. Fefer, I.S. Yuzefovich, L.M. Kvitko, P.D. Markish, D.N. Gofshtein, L.S. Stern. In July 1952, the leaders of the committee were sentenced to capital punishment or long terms of imprisonment.

1959 - In the Canadian province of Ontario, it is forbidden to punish prisoners with flogging.

1967 - American boxer Muhammad Ali has been charged with evading military service.

1984 - Dennis Lautier opened machine gun fire in the Canadian Parliament building, killing three and injuring 13 people.

1992 - hitman Amin Musostov was killed with several shots on the landing of the fifth floor in his house in New Jersey. He also ran racketeering in Brighton Beach.

1993 - 16-year-old Keron Thomas decided to play as a train driver. Thomas took a train full of passengers (3000 people) hostage and drove them around New York for 3 hours.

2000 - Ukrainian composer Igor Bilozir was beaten by hooligans in Lviv, who died three weeks later - this caused a wave of persecution of the Russian language in the city.

History of the day

May 8, 1902 the devastating eruption of the Montaigne Pele volcano on the island of Martinique, 40 times more powerful than the explosion of the atomic bomb over Hiroshima. It is considered the most destructive eruption in the 20th century.

The inhabitants of Martinique did not attach due importance when, in January 1902, the top of Montaigne Pelé began to smoke. However, the snakes immediately felt something was wrong. They rushed down and flooded the city of Saint-Pierre. From the bites of reptiles then 50 people died, mostly children. However, people have shown frivolity after that.

As a result, the volcanic eruption wiped out the 28,000th Saint-Pierre. Only one person managed to survive - a criminal who was sentenced to a long term and served his sentence in a local prison. Louis-Auguste Cypress, nicknamed Samson, was known on the island for trouble with the law and frequent prison breaks. During the eruption, he was in the chamber and sat there for four days, despite severe burns. He was saved by strong prison walls: there were no windows in the cell, only a small barred hole in the door. Rescuers dug it up a few days later.

Pardoned by the island's governor, Cypress joined the Barnum and Bailey circus troupe and, as the "Prisoner of St. Pierre," traveled the world with them, telling his story and showing off his burn scars.

Person of the day

May 8, 1891 Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, who still remains one of the most mysterious women in the world, died in London. She is considered: a theosophist, philosopher, writer, traveler, occultist and spiritualist. But some consider her a banal swindler.

Once Blavatsky opened her soul to her friend, the writer Vsevolod Solovyov, and told him:

To control people, you need to deceive them. A long time ago I understood these darlings of people, and their stupidity sometimes gives me enormous pleasure ... The simpler, stupider and cruder the phenomenon, the more surely it succeeds.

Solovyov later ruthlessly exposed Blavatsky in his book and dubbed her "the catcher of souls". However, many are still convinced of its holiness. And now she has thousands of followers around the world. They have specially established the Day of the White Lotus, when they annually commemorate the Great Initiate Helena Blavatsky.

Execution of the day

May 8, 1794 in Paris, by the verdict of the revolutionary tribunal, Antoine Laurent Lavoisier, the famous naturalist, one of the founders of the modern science of chemistry, was executed for "counter-revolutionary activities", bribery and misappropriation of state capital.

It must be admitted that Lavoisier's talents concerned not only chemistry, but also finance. Back in 1768, the young scientist joined the General Farming Company, a company of financiers who leased from the French government the right to monopoly trade in salt, tobacco and wine, as well as the right to collect various duties when transporting goods. For rent, tax-farmers contributed 15-20 million livres annually to the treasury. This amount they then more than levied from the population. Each of the farmers received annually about 100-150 thousand livres of income.

Lavoisier, entering into the General Farm, contributed in cash as a share 340 thousand livres and 180 thousand livres in interest-bearing papers - all his personal capital, inherited from his father and aunt. But soon he more than paid back all the costs. He amassed a huge fortune, the size of which, according to various sources, ranged from 2 to 5 million livres.

The people hated tax-farmers and believed that it was their fault that food prices were rising. Therefore, with jubilation, he accepted the decision of the Convet in 1794 to arrest all the tax-farmers. Antoine Laurent was among those arrested.

Lavoisier asked the judges to delay the execution for a few days in order to complete the scientific work. The assistant chairman of the tribunal, Coffinal, replied briefly: "The Republic does not need chemists." The famous mathematician Lagrange had a different opinion. The next day after the execution, he said: "It was enough for the executioner to cut off this head, but perhaps a century will not be enough to produce another one."

There is a legend that before the execution, Lavoisier asked the executioner, showing the people a severed head, look into his eyes: if Lavoisier winks with his right (but not with his left eye), then a scientific discovery will be made, which should be reported to the academy: the head thinks for at least a few more seconds. But the executioner replied: “I know what’s what without experiments: if they didn’t feel anything, then I wouldn’t have to change the baskets with bitten edges every week where these heads fall.” However, Lavoisier still decided to check. The onlookers gathered at the will of the guillotine were shocked when the eyes on the severed head of the scientist blinked for almost half a minute.

In 1796, Lavoisier was posthumously rehabilitated.

Arrest of the day

Twin brothers Ronald Ronnie Kray and Reginald Reggie Kray were leaders of London's East End organized crime during the 1950s and 1960s. They were called the criminal leaders of London, the leaders of a gang called the Firm, and their cruelty was legendary. Until now, the Kray brothers are often mentioned in English films.

Officially, Ronald and Reginald were listed in the capital of Britain as owners of nightclubs, and unofficially, Ronnie and Reggie were engaged in racketeering. The police could not catch them in any way, the brothers were cruel and the witnesses were afraid to testify against them. For example, on March 9, 1966, in a pub, Ronnie Cray sent a member of a rival gang that controls south London, George Cornell, to the forefathers with a headshot from a 9 mm Mauser, and calmly left the premises. At that moment there were a lot of people in the pub, but no one dared to testify against Ronnie Kray. True, in 1956 there was a daredevil who said that Ronnie Kray had beaten him. After that, Ronnie landed in prison for three years, where he "moved in phase" and ended up in a lunatic asylum.

From the Long Grove Psychiatric Hospital, Reggie arranged for his brother a curious escape. He came to visit him at the clinic and stayed, and Ronnie went out the gate and disappeared. Since the brothers were like two drops of water, the clinic staff did not detain the fugitive. They couldn’t prove Reggie’s guilt, he said that his brother went to the kitchen for tea, and he stayed to wait for him.

Having become the owners of several nightclubs, the Kray brothers turned into respectable gentlemen who rotated in the circle of celebrities. Among their friends were Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, as well as numerous members of both houses of parliament. The twins became gossip columns, and were hunted by the paparazzi.

But that all changed when Scotland Yard inspector Leonard Reid took over. May 8, 1968 Reggie, Ronnie and 15 of The Firm's thugs were arrested. Reid hoped that people would start talking if they saw that the whole gang was behind bars, and he was not mistaken.

The Kray twins were sentenced to life in prison. In prison, they whiled away the time writing memoirs and painting pictures. The artists among them were terrible, but they were famous bandits. After the death of the brothers, these paintings were put up for auction and sold for 12 thousand pounds.

And now the twin bandits have become the pride of England; at least a dozen films have been made about them, and even more books have been written. And the places associated with them have turned into attractions in London.

Sentence of the day

May 8, 2009 the court sentenced to imprisonment members of a criminal group that specialized in the theft of expensive cars in the territory of the Ural Federal District of the Russian Federation. And the leader of this group was not just anyone, but the head coach of the Russian karate team Georgy Khizhnyakov.

It's no secret that in Russia expensive cars cost the same as apartments, only you can't move an apartment, and you can steal a car. So Khizhnyakov got excited about the idea of ​​getting rich by stealing expensive foreign cars, and to implement it he created a criminal group, which included Tyumen residents Komar and Khudoleev, a resident of Yekaterinburg Pitirimov and Merzhoev, previously convicted of stealing vehicles. This group operated from 2002 to 2007.

As a rule, car thefts were committed near shopping centers and cafes - when the owners left their vehicles and went on business. With the help of modern electronic devices, the attackers turned off the alarm and skillfully removed the anti-theft devices with special devices, after which they disappeared from the scene. Subsequently, the unit numbers of the stolen foreign cars were changed, the documents were forged and the cars were sold.

During the investigation, the theft by Khizhnyakov's group of 17 cars worth a total of 18.5 million rubles was established. The court sentenced Georgy Khizhnyakov to 8 years in prison, Merzhoev to 9.5 years, and Komar to 6.5 years of captivity. Khudoleev and Pitirimov got off with suspended sentences.

Record of the day

Fame for the English executioner Albert Pierrepoint was brought by the executions of war criminals during the Second World War and after it. For seven years, he sent about 200 war criminals to the next world. A particularly heavy burden fell on him when Albert was sent to post-war Germany. Once he happened to hang up 27 people in one day. Among the well-known people sent by him to the forefathers were, for example, the commandant of the Belsen concentration camp Josef Kramer and the guard Irma Grese, whom the prisoners called "The Beast and Beast of Belsen".

In total, Albert Pierrepoint had a chance to work in 9 countries. And everywhere he showed admiration for his signature English method of hanging.

May 8, 1951 he carried out the fastest execution in the history of Great Britain - in 7 seconds he hanged James Inglis, who was sentenced for the murder of a prostitute.

Speed ​​was ensured by careful preparation. Pierrepoint carefully measured the height and weight of those sentenced to death, and based on this he calculated the length of the rope for each sentenced.

Curiosity of the day

May 8, 2029 theoretically, William Leonard Picard, the chemist who produced almost the entire world supply of LSD of his time, could be released. From 1991 to 2000, he was practically the only one in the world to produce LSD, as part of the Los Angeles drug research program and the research leadership of the University of California at Berkeley.

Picard treated LSD with religious trepidation and was even said to offer up prayers every time before proceeding with the production of the next dose of the drug.

The scientist was lured into a crooked path by a wealthy weed dealer Gordon Skinner, who had his own old nuclear bunker bought on occasion. Picard relocated his laboratory to this bunker, and in the future it was planned to create some kind of "hippie paradise" there. Gordon used the bunker as a hideout from the Apocalypse, and outfitted it with an $80,000 sound system and a marble hot tub. And with LSD, no end of the world is scary at all.

They fell asleep stupidly. Skinner, playing in a casino, for some reason tried to impersonate an Interpol agent. He was arrested. The most annoying thing is that he was lucky that day, and he constantly won. To save himself, he "invested" Picard. William was arrested with all the laboratory equipment and a supply of chemicals sufficient to produce 15 million doses of the drug. The government proudly announced the seizure and destruction of 90% of the world's supply of LSD. True, after that, the price of LSD in the United States on the "black market" immediately jumped from 5 bucks per dose to 20.

William Leonard Picard was given two life sentences, and Gordon Skinner got away with it.

On May 8, 2017, the operational units of the penitentiary system of Russia celebrate the 82nd anniversary of its formation. This event is significant not only for its staff, but also for all those who stand guard over law and order in the penitentiary system. The operational service is an integral part of the law enforcement system of the state, it performs one of its most difficult functions related to the execution of punishment.

The history of operational service in our country dates back to 1935, when the secret department of the Joint State Political Administration was entrusted with secret operational work in political isolation wards. Operational-Chekist departments in places of deprivation of liberty were created by order of the NKVD of the USSR in the pre-war years - in 1935.

May 8, 1935 is considered the official day of the creation of the operational units of the UIS. Since 1954, the reorganization, formation and formation of the system of correctional institutions, which still exists today, has been carried out. History has preserved the names of the first leaders: P.B. Nikonov, S.E. Vlasov, A.I. Tolmachev, Ya.P. Ivanov, A.B. Chernetsky, A.V. Vasiliev, participant of the Great Patriotic War - lieutenant colonel of the internal service N. F. Bychkov. Since 1985, the operational department of the UIN was headed by the colonel of the internal service O.A. Gaponenko, since 2003 - colonel of the internal service A.N. Tsyplakov, since 2010, the operational department was headed by the colonel of the internal service O.V. Ilyin, since 2013 - lieutenant colonel of the internal service P.A. Zazulin, from 2015 to the present, the operational department is headed by lieutenant colonel of the internal service V. Yu. Morokhotov.

The operational staff of the penal system of the Tambov region fulfill their duties with full responsibility, analyzing the ways of establishing and improving the operational units of the penal system of the region, the work of the operational teams does not stand still, it is intensively developing, being structured and reformed. Despite the difficulties that arise along this path, the operational teams do not stop there, they continue their offensive movement.

The head of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia for the Tambov Region, Colonel of the Internal Service Alexander Fedorov, congratulated all the employees of the operational service:

Dear Colleagues! I congratulate you on the occasion! You work in difficult conditions, take decisive measures to ensure law and order in the institutions of the region. I thank you for your experience and professionalism, for faithful service to the law and conscientious performance of your official duty, for your experience, for the fact that you are used to sacrificing free time and family comfort for the sake of business. I wish you success, good health, good luck, great personal happiness, family well-being, as well as understanding and respect from colleagues and your loved ones.

On May 8, employees of the criminal investigation department have been celebrating their professional holiday for many decades. The symbolic date of the celebration is timed to the day of the creation of operational units of the penitentiary system. This significant event for the country took place on May 8, 1935, but the history of the structure begins even earlier - from 1925.

The day of the operative worker of the penitentiary system unites employees of internal bodies involved in ensuring the safety of prisoners and correctional workers. They celebrate their professional holiday in a tense working environment, ensuring continuous prevention of offenses in correctional facilities.

The chosen date has a symbolic meaning: it is dedicated to the creation on May 8, 1935 of the units of the penitentiary system. They became the prototype of the modern.

For a decade before the official formation of the structure in the isolation wards for political prisoners, operational activities were carried out with prisoners. With the help of them, information was secretly obtained about the participants in the committed and impending crimes.

During the celebrations of 2019, employees gather at the festive tables. They share their experience, discuss legislation, news. Stories from life and everyday work are told. Photographs are taken for memory, colleagues show photos from albums, watch videos of memorable moments.
