Summary

Introduction

The direct duty of the criminal police is to ensure the principle of inevitability of punishment for violent crimes and other illegal acts provided by the norms of the criminal law with double prevention (threat of murder, harm to health, assault, torture), as well as those that establish liability for illegal acquisition, transfer, sale, storage, transportation or carrying of weapons, ammunition, explosives or explosive devices, etc. and certain administrative offenses This allows to achieve a preventive effect in the fight against assault on a person (Shevchenko & Nykyforchuk, 2015). There has been an increase in crime in general and in serious crimes against the person (such as intentional homicide) in particular in recent years. The number of registered homicides in Ukraine has increased by almost 10% over the last 10 years. Most of them are committed in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Odessa regions (Shevchenko & Nykyforchuk, 2015)
