Abstract
In this article the authors revealed the peculiarities of conducting covert investigative (search) operations (CISO) and operative-technical measures during the Detection, Documentation and Investigation of Criminal Offenses, as well as suggested ways to improve them.
At the moment, units that are authorized to conduct such activities use the Instruction about organization of conducting covert investigative search operations and usage of their results in the criminal processes. One can not but draw attention to the fact that this act was signed and registered long before the signing of the Law of Ukraine «About National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine», laws «About National Police» and «About the State Bureau of Investigations». It is natural that in the provisions of the Instruction the newly created bodies and the provisions of the relevant laws have not been taken into account.
With the aim of regulation of a lot of problematic questions in conducting CISO, normative-legal regulation of this sphere of activity of authorized operative units and a number of other bodies, the need of publication the Instruction about organization and conducting of covert investigative search operations and the usage of their results in the criminal processes in new edition is urgent. This will contribute to strengthening the rule of law in the activities of the above mentioned bodies and improving their effectiveness.
