Abstract

The issues related to the procedure for inspecting the subject of a bribe - money are considered. The quantitative growth of corruption-related crimes, including bribe-taking, is stated. Cash remains a common bribe. It is concluded that, when investigating the receipt of a bribe, it is difficult to prove the fact of accepting a bribe. In this case, the peculiarities of the procedure for inspecting banknotes have a special role. On the basis of the analysis, the sequence of actions related to the inspection of the packaging of the subject of bribes and money was determined. Typical traces found during the examination are indicated (sweat marks of hands, traces of DNA, odor traces). The authors have proposed recommendations for the detection of these traces when examining funds. The emphasis is made on modern methods of detecting handprints. The possibilities of using the results of studies of traces by DNA analysis (by the method of genotyposcopy) have been determined. It is concluded that when examining funds, it is advisable to use the methods and techniques recommended by forensic science that ensure the effectiveness of their further expert research.
