Goals And Objectives

Problem statement. In Russian criminal process, traditionally, one of the more complicated differentiated procedures are criminal proceedings on the use of compulsory medical measures. The specificity of these proceedings involves the establishment of additional guarantees and special procedural rules aimed at ensuring the rights and legitimate interests of people with mental disorders. However, jurisdiction in this category of criminal cases is determined according to general rules, without taking into account the specifics of the proceedings. The current criminal procedural legislation allows the consideration of criminal cases on the use of compulsory medical measures by a magistrate, without taking into account the specifics of the proceedings. The shortcomings of the criminal procedure legislation give rise to contradictory judicial practice. Goals and Objectives of the Study. To reveal the normative and doctrinal approaches to determining the jurisdiction of criminal cases on the use of compulsory medical measures; substantiate the need to change the rules of jurisdiction for this category of cases; to formulate suggestions for adjusting the criminal procedural norms in connection with the exclusion of cases on the application of compulsory medical measures from a magistrate’s jurisdiction. Methods. In the process of working on the article, general scientific research methods were used – analysis, synthesis, classification, comparison, systematization and generalization, as well as specific scientific methods – formal-logical, studying law enforcement practice. Results, Summary Conclusions. Suggestions have been formulated to change the normative regulation of the jurisdiction of criminal cases on the use of compulsory medical measures. The current criminal procedure for determining the jurisdiction of criminal cases on the use of compulsory medical measures has significant gaps that require exclusion of criminal cases on people with mental illnesses from the competence of a magistrate.

The paper is devoted to the analysis of a new ground for recognition of a person as a suspect, introduced under the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, namely, the initiation of a criminal case against the person. The ground under consideration has caused controversial debates among criminal process scholars. The author has carried out a retrospective analysis of the legislative regulation of this ground for giving a person the status of the suspect. The paper evaluates various doctrinal approaches to its merits and disadvantages. The author also demonstartes the need for the new ground for recognition of a person as the suspect in law enforcement on the basis of statistical data, according to which more than half of criminal cases in Russia are initiated against a particular person. The study at question reveals an interconnection between initiation of proceedings upon commission of a crime and a particular person. The conclusion is substantiated that the recognition of a person as a suspect in case of initiation of criminal proceedings against him is aimed at ensuring his right to protection from criminal prosecution. However, the issuance of the order to initiate criminal proceedings against a particular person entails the possibility of implementation of coercive criminal procedural measures against him. It is shown that suspicion forms the substantive basis of recognition of a person as the suspect. The author criticises the approach according to which the issuance of the order to initiate criminal proceedings against a particular person forms an allegation that he has committed an act prohibited under the criminal law. Under this approach the assumption is made that can later be either proven or refuted in the course of further investigation. The author criticises the practice of dividing criminal cases into a judicial perspective and lacking such a perspective, which entails violations of the rights and legitimate interests of individuals suspected in committing crimes.

Identifying Property

The authors consider the theoretical provisions and analyze practical examples of the activities of the investigative bodies to seize property in pre-trial proceedings in criminal cases. The relevance of this topic is determined by the fact that one of the priority activities of the preliminary investigation bodies at present is to ensure the rights and legitimate interests of citizens against criminal encroachments. The possibility of compensation to victims of harm caused by a crime in criminal procedure law is a guarantee of protection of these rights and contributes to the implementation of the purpose of criminal proceedings. Based on the results obtained, the authors conclude that it is necessary to further improve the law enforcement practice and the norms of criminal and criminal-procedure legislation in order to improve the efficiency of solving problems of identifying property that can be seized. In this connection, it is proposed to amend Part 3 of Article 104.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, providing for the possibility of confiscation of property, regardless of the awareness of the causal relationship between the committed act and the presence of money or other property.Keywords: Criminal proceedings; Measures of procedural coercion; Investigator; Inquirer; Civil claim Penyitaan Properti sebagai Cara untuk Memastikan Kompensasi atas Kerusakan yang Disebabkan oleh Kejahatan: Teori dan Praktik AbstrakPenulis mempertimbangkan ketentuan teoritis dan menganalisis contoh praktis dari kegiatan badan investigasi untuk menyita properti dalam proses pra-persidangan dalam kasus pidana. Relevansi topik ini ditentukan oleh fakta bahwa salah satu kegiatan prioritas badan investigasi pendahuluan saat ini adalah memastikan hak dan kepentingan sah warga negara terhadap perambahan kriminal. Kemungkinan pemberian ganti rugi kepada korban kerugian yang diakibatkan oleh suatu tindak pidana dalam hukum acara pidana merupakan jaminan perlindungan terhadap hak-hak tersebut dan turut menunjang terlaksananya tujuan proses pidana. Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh, penulis menyimpulkan bahwa perlu lebih meningkatkan praktik penegakan hukum dan norma-norma peraturan perundang-undangan pidana dan acara pidana untuk meningkatkan efisiensi penyelesaian masalah identifikasi harta benda yang dapat disita. Sehubungan dengan itu, diusulkan untuk mengubah Bagian 3 Pasal 104.1 KUHP Federasi Rusia, yang mengatur kemungkinan penyitaan properti, terlepas dari kesadaran akan hubungan sebab akibat antara tindakan yang dilakukan dan adanya uang atau properti lainnya.Kata Kunci: Proses pidana; Tindakan paksaan prosedural; Peneliti; Penanya; Klaim sipil. Наложение ареста на имущество в целях обеспечения возмещения вреда, причиненного преступлением: теория и практика АннотацияАвторами рассматриваются теоретические положения и анализируются практические примеры деятельности органов расследования по наложению ареста на имущество в досудебном производстве по уголовным делам. Актуальность данной темы определяется тем, что одним из приоритетных направлений деятельности органов предварительного следствия в настоящее время является обеспечение прав и законных интересов граждан от преступных посягательств. Возможность возмещения потерпевшим вреда, причиненного преступлением, в уголовно-процессуальном праве является гарантией защиты данных прав и способствует реализации назначения уголовного судопроизводства.

В связи с чем предлагают внести в ч. 3 ст. 104.1 УК РФ изменения, предусматривающие возможность конфискации имущества, вне зависимости от осведомленности о причинно-следственной связи между совершенным деянием и наличием денег или иного имущества.Ключевые слова: Ключевые слова: уголовное судопроизводство, меры процессуального принуждения, следователь, дознаватель, гражданский иск

The article deals in a generalised form with the problems associated with the conclusion, change, implementation and termination of the agreement on cooperation in criminal cases. Based on the results of the analysis of these problems and publications on these issues, various options for their solution are proposed. At the same time, the main attention is paid to the role and importance in the implementation of the norms of this institution of the prosecutor, the insufficiency of its powers to improve the effectiveness of the application of the pre-trial agreement. The author sets the task to form a set of proposals to improve the legal regulation of the procedure for the prosecutor's actions, its participation in proving compliance with the conditions and fulfillment of obligations by the suspect, accused under the pre-trial agreement, in proving the guilt of accomplices in a crime committed by a person in respect of whom the criminal case is allocated in a separate proceeding in connection with the conclusion of a pre-trial agreement. The study used general scientific methods (analysis, deduction) and private scientific methods (formal-logical, comparative law, etc.). As conclusions, it is proposed to make a number of additions to the criminal procedure law, including Part 2 of Article 74 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation and introduce a new norm – Article 79.1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, as well as to take certain organisational measures.
