French term or phrase: ordre de mise à la disposition
This term is found on an "Attestion de Sortie" [Certificate of Release] for a prisoner that was released from jail in Burkina Faso.

After the document lists the person's name, DOB, place of residence, etc., it states:

Incarcéré suivant :
1/ Ordre de mise à la disposition du Procureur du Faso le ___[date]___ pour ___[reason]______

I cannot figure out what this means exactly.

Merci à l'avance !
