The author in the article deals with the powers to change the degree and qualification of the prosecution used by the Prosecutor at the final stage of pre-trial proceedings. The author concludes that the scope of powers depends on the form of preliminary investigation determining the procedural function of the Prosecutor. The opinion that the Prosecutor after transferring the criminal case with the indictment obtains the function of criminal prosecution is critically evaluated. The author shows that the Prosecutor assumes this function only if the indictment is approved. The author’s position is supported by the need to return the opportunity to adjust the charge in the criminal case received by him with the indictment to the Prosecutor.

The emergence of the Internet and intangible digital objects of value to humans led to the proclamation of the concept of “digital human rights” in civil substantive law. In criminal procedure law this term is not absent. In this case, the investigator collects information about the circumstances to be proved in a criminal case under the conditions of digitalization of all human life processes. The Internet network has combined a large number of data sets of government agencies, commercial organizations, and individuals. The investigator’s access to these data sets and their study would allow optimizing the investigator’s activities by quickly collecting the necessary information for the criminal case and using it as evidence. To this end, the article gives the concept of” digital rights “ of an investigator, suggests an approach to creating such rights in criminal procedure legislation, and defines the problems of organizing the collection of criminally significant information from public and private information systems on the Internet.

The article considers the question of the interdependence of the improvement of the institution of suspicion and the transformation of the initial stage of the Russian criminal process. The article highlights the problem of the legislative limitation of the period of the procedural status of a person as a suspect in the event of a criminal case being initiated not against him, but upon the commission of a crime and insufficient evidence of the involvement/non-involvement of such a person in a criminal offence committed at the initial stage of the investigation, which often does not allow avoiding unreasonable restrictions on the constitutional rights and freedoms of this participant in criminal proceedings. The relevant experience of some post-Soviet states that followed the path of a radical change in the criminal procedure model after the collapse of the USSR is analysed. The article compares the provisions of the criminal procedure legislation of the Russian Federation and the Kyrgyz Republic directly related to the institution of suspicion, including the moment of triggering criminal prosecution and the duration of a suspect’s keeping the specified procedural status. The arguments given in the article substantiate the need to reform the initial moment of the emergence of the procedural status of a suspect in Russian criminal proceedings and the associated expediency of abolishing the stage of initiation of a criminal case in order to increase the guarantee of the rights and legitimate interests of the person introduced into the procedural status we are analysing.

The article substantiates the need to change the criminal procedural legislation that regulates the powers of the prosecutor and the status of the victim and gives the prosecutor the right to initiate a criminal case. The proposed changes in the procedural powers of the prosecutor are also considered through the prism of organizing the activities of law enforcement agencies and the impact of statistical reporting indicators on their activities. The experience of prosecutorial and investigative practices and the opinion of distinguished domestic legal scholars are analyzed. The changes proposed by the authors could have a significant positive impact on the work of preliminary investigation bodies and reduce the number of violations committed during preliminary investigation stages. In addition, bringing the status of the prosecutor and the preliminary investigation bodies into a logical procedural position could eliminate unnecessary and inherently harmful corporate competition.

The article considers the problems associated with the use in proving the testimony of persons with a transforming criminal procedural status. A concrete example of the use of witness testimony in proving a criminal case is described, the process of establishing the truth in which was complicated by the opposition of the defense. During the court session, the prosecution's witness withdrew from the testimony he had given at the preliminary investigation stage, explaining this by the pressure exerted on him by the investigator, which fully satisfied the defense. Thanks to the creative approach and activity of the prosecution, it was possible to obtain new evidence, which allowed not only to expose the witness in giving knowingly false testimony in court, but also to convince the court of the guilt of the defendant, in whose favor the witness changed his testimony.
