Abstract
The article examines the theoretical and legal aspects of operational investigative measures to detect criminal offenses related to sources of ionizing radiation. Attention is focused on the threat to national security of finding sources of ionizing radiation beyond regulatory control under martial law conditions. A comparative analysis of the legal bases of the activities of the criminal police units of the National Police of Ukraine in the prevention of criminal offenses related to sources of ionizing radiation was performed. Attention is focused on the powers of the criminal police regarding the implementation of a complex of operative and investigative measures to counter the investigated criminal offenses. It has been established that among the criminal police units of the National Police of Ukraine, the Department of Ensuring Activities Related to Hazardous Materials is assigned the task of carrying out investigative measures to detect criminal offenses related to sources of ionizing radiation. It is noted that in order to ensure the personal safety of police officers and citizens, employees of criminal police units must undergo special training in advance and be provided with special equipment. This is a condition for the effectiveness of criminal police units in detecting criminal offenses related to sources of ionizing radiation. In addition, the effective organizational activity of the criminal police units for the detection of investigated criminal offenses requires interaction with the Security Service of Ukraine and the State Service for Emergency Situations. Taking into account the urgency of preventing the commission of criminal offenses related to sources of ionizing radiation for the national security of Ukraine, the feasibility of an additional study aimed at conceptualizing the organizational and tactical foundations of the implementation of operative and investigative measures, including covert, authorized subjects of various law enforcement agencies, is substantiated , which are part of the security and defense forces of Ukraine.
