One of the most relevant and acute problems of the modern legal science in the Republic of Kazakhstan is the creation of national probation model. As for today this element, without which it is just impossible to imagine any modern national system of penal justice, remains quite undeveloped in Kazakhstan and thereby attracts attention of scientists and practicians. Besides, probation is the integrated part of penal justice system of many countries and the result of democratic society development stipulated by almost two hundred years of probation issueselaboration. In the present paper authors set the task of finding out which elements should comprise probation in the Republic of Kazakhstan, defining its development prospects and analyzing positive economic changes in connection with probation introduction. Authors have studied existing legal framework to ground the necessity of introducing of thorough probation mechanism, which implies assurance of society security by correction of convicts and prevention of repeated criminal offences committed by them. It should be noticed that both – the criminal law and the criminal procedure in general – represent one large integral system. And up to date national policy deals with such a component of the system as humanization of punishment. It has been established that the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan has introduced a number of new types of criminal sanctions representing an alternative to deprivation of freedom and also provides the possibility of relief from enduring the punishment under conditions that guarantee the convict can mend without it. Authors mention the control for execution of such punishment types is imposed on penal inspection of the State penal service. Therefore, the additional loads on the penal inspection and reorientation of its activities to performance of social preventive functionsraise an issue aboutfeasibility of creation of probation service, which would have more legal and social powers and deal with the matters of convicts’ resocialization. Analysis of advanced European countries’ experience demonstrates the execution of alternative punishment types is carried out by specialized state service out of police and prison facilitiestheprobation service.

The rule that convicted persons serve their sentences exclusively in prisons has not been valid in the Republic of Serbia for a long time. Prison sentences may also be executed in the premises where the convicted person resides. Such a solution is introduced by the 2009 Law on Amendments and Supplements to the Criminal Code. The Criminal Code does not prescribe the punishment of a prison sentence served in the premises where the convicted person resides as a special punishment. Instead, the offender is sentenced to imprisonment, which is then executed in the premises where he lives. In criminal proceedings, the court is obliged to individualize the criminal sanction in a way that takes into account objective and subjective circumstances - the circumstances relating to the committed crime and its perpetrator. There are such perpetrators who it is necessary to sentence to prison, but who should not be sent to a penal institution. The prison sentence may also be served in premises where they reside (with or without electronic surveillance). Although, in a legally-binding sentence, the accused is sentenced to imprisonment in a penal institution, this does not necessarily mean that he will be placed into a penal institution to serve his sentence. The amendments and supplements of the Criminal Code leave an "opportunity" for the convict to serve his sentence in the premises where he resides, if the prescribed conditions are met. This is only a possibility which may be decided on by the judge in charge of executing criminal sanctions. If it is decided that the convicted person shall serve his sentence in the premises where he resides, the next step is the execution of the sentence. Not all convicted persons who are serving their sentence in this way are in the same legal position, as there is individualization in the process of executing a sentence as well. This difference is apparent, above all, in the amount of time that a convict is allowed to spend outside of the premises in which he resides. The focus of the authors' attention is precisely the punishment of imprisonment served in the premises where the convict resides (the so-called house arrest). The authors deal with material aspects and aspects of execution of the sentence. This paper focuses, among other matters, on the conditions for sentencing, models of execution of the sentence and the legal position of the convicted person while serving his sentence.
