Abstract

This article discusses the current problems of criminal procedure law concerning the institution of refusal to initiate criminal proceedings. This institution is of no small importance in the system of criminal procedure law, since the further fate of the received statement or message about the crimes being prepared or committed depends on it a lot. For the purpose of a detailed analysis of this institute, the author has studied the normative-legal, as well as internal acts aimed at regulating law enforcement practice. Based on the scientific research available to date regarding the institution of refusal to initiate criminal proceedings, the author conducts a comparative analysis of the criterion of justified and lawful refusal to initiate criminal proceedings. Having examined the procedural procedure for refusing to initiate a criminal case, the author emphasizes the need to indicate in the resolution the grounds for making such a decision provided for by the norms of the Criminal Procedure Code, references to the paragraph, part, article of the Criminal Procedure Law providing for responsibility for the crime, the signs of which served as the basis for the audit. Violation of this requirement may deprive this resolution of legal force. The correct decision to refuse to initiate a criminal case can serve as a guarantee against illegal and unjustified criminal prosecution.
