The witness should make a suing before being instructed on criminal liability – I think so for the following reason: many times I have seen a witness get pale when he hears about 8 years in prison. Many times I have seen that when a witness heard about 8 years in prison, he had not heard anything for a long time because he was so scared.

When such a frightened witness makes a suing, he often no longer understands what he sings. Although many judges still explain to the witness that the witness is to tell the truth and NOT TO CONCEAL ANYTHING, even a conscious and courageous witness does not understand well what not to conceal.

A witness scared of the threat of 8 years in prison does not understand anything of the content of the suing, because he thinks all the time about these 8 years. I happened to observe that a witness so scared (irresemcouling) and dumbfounded (with a suction) testified manifestly falsely about things he had previously told many times differently, and this was also due to documents. It was an extreme case when a successful employee of a scientific institute, who drew up a so-called private (commissioned by the party) building opinion, testified almost everything contrary to the content of that opinion. And it was this witness who was the author of this opinion. He even denied laboratory tests.
