CRIMINALITY AND PUNISHABILITY OF WOMEN IN KAZAKHSTAN: ADDITIONAL TOOLS FOR ENSURING SOCIAL JUSTICE

The problem of sentencing women to imprisonment, as well as the isolation of women, is one of the «inconvenient» for both legislators and human rights defenders. On the one hand, the fact of belonging to the female is often perceived as a reason for using more humane methods of influence. On the other hand, leniency based solely on gender can lead to a violation of the principle of social justice. At the same time, the criminological picture of women committing ordinary crimes, including violent ones, is only getting worse every year. It is necessary to develop a consistent methodology for the application and execution of deprivation of liberty against women using additional tools available within the framework of the Kazakh legal system.
