Abstract
Article provides substantial grounds for the statement that methodology of crime committed in the course of official activity is developed within the limit of few offences reflecting the criminal’s behavior – in order to achieve their aims officials take a whole set of interdependent actions with intention to obtain the defined results. Review of anti-corruption legislation and numerous amendments to the Criminal Code of Ukraine, lack of enforcement practice and contradictions between the provisions of basic anti-corruption law and criminal legislation obstruct the abovementioned crime combating. Operatives’ task is to identify the fact of crime (specific actions followed by sanctions and measures) through collection of operative data and its thorough analysis (detection of crime characteristics). That is why operatives must be aware of typical criminal schemes and be able to identify and fix the relevant characteristics of each specific crime. Key elements of operative-investigative service crime are presented: definitions of specific crime type and classification of characterized actions (subject of criminal intention and criminal manifestation); factors influencing the relevant behavior (objective and subjective); relevant behavior (ways of crime preparation, concealment and committal); relevant individuals (personal data, opportunities and purpose, specific characteristics) along with classification of illegal acts under articles of Criminal Code of Ukraine.Downloads
