Annotation: The article discusses the current issues related to criminal violence during the implementation of a preventive measure in the form of detention. One of the most serious crimes that can occur in pre-trial detention centers is undoubtedly taking hostages. This act poses an increased public danger and is associated not only with the forced detention of a person, but also with the use or threat of violence against them, the possibility of illegal escape from detention and the potential for continued criminal activity. Currently, there are 210 pre-trial deten- tion centers and 71 premises operating as pre-trial detention facilities2 located on the territory of each region of the Russian Federation within the penal system. In this regard, the study of this topic is quite relevant, as the commission of such an act not only destabilizes the operations of this correctional facility, but also necessitates the activation of the entire law enforcement apparatus in the region. In the text of the article, the Russian Fed- eration is abbreviated as RF.
