Section 56 Execution of a Sentence of Imprisonment
(1) An unsuspended sentence of imprisonment shall be served differentially in prisons a) with surveillance,
b) with supervision,
c) with security, or
d) with increased security.
(2) The court shall generally place to a prison
a) with surveillance an offender who was sentenced for a negligent misdemeanour and
who has not yet served a sentence for an intentional criminal offence,
b) with supervision an offender who was sentenced for a negligent misdemeanour and who has already served a sentence for an intentional criminal offence, or an offender who was sentenced for an intentional criminal offence to less than three years of imprisonment and who has not yet served a sentence for an intentional criminal
offence,
c) with supervision an offender who was sentenced for an intentional criminal offence,
when conditions for placing to a prison with supervision or with increased security are not met, and an offender who was sentenced for a negligent misdemeanour and who
was not placed to a prison with surveillance or supervision,
d) with increased security an offender who was sentenced to an exceptional sentence of
imprisonment (Section 54), who was sentenced to imprisonment for a criminal offence committed in favour of an organised criminal group (Section 108), who was sentenced for an especially serious felony (Section 14(3)) to imprisonment for at least eight years, or who was sentenced for an intentional criminal offence and has escaped from custody or from serving a sentence during last five years.
(3) The court may place an offender to a prison of a different type than to which is he/she supposed to be placed according to Sub-section (2), if the court believes that in the view of the seriousness of the criminal offence and the degree and nature of disturbance of the offender his/her placement to another type of prison shall better induce him/her to lead an upright life; however an offender who was sentenced to imprisonment for life will always be placed to a prison with increased security.
(4) The manner of execution of a sentence of imprisonment in individual types of prisons is regulated by a special legal enactment.
