The authors indicate the difficulties caused in psychiatric hospitals by interned offenders with reduced responsibility who are criminals from the legal point of view. They provide examples illustrating dangerous behaviour of these detainees following the court hospital release order but prior to transfer to prison for their prison sentence.
