Abstract

The article analyzes the main reasons for the latency of crimes in the field of physical culture and sports. The authors, in general, note that the situation has not changed significantly even ten years after the legislator adopted the first attempt to improve the norms aimed at combating the illegal influence on the result of sports competitions. Among the reasons for the latency of crimes, the authors attributed the closeness of the sports system and the peculiarities of the relationships between its participants; shortcomings of the blank legislation; lack of initiative on the part of law enforcement agencies. The inconsistency of legislative decisions in terms of strengthening the repressive potential of criminal law and blanket legislation and the simultaneous legalization of a closed procedure for the consideration of disputes in sports is noted. In addition, the authors note ambiguous approaches to the identification, suppression and investigation of the investigated encroachments by the criminal justice authorities, explore regulatory options for improving the norm of unlawful influence on the results of sports competitions, analyze issues of countering other corrupt manifestations in the field of sports functioning.
