PROBLEMS OF PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION INTRODUCTION OF A PERSON INTO AN ORGANIZED CRIMINAL GROUP OR CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION TO PERFORM THE SPECIAL TASK OF UNDERSTANDING CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES

Abstract

The article examines the existing problems of the practical implementation of the introduction of a person into an organized criminal group or criminal organization to perform a special task of preventing or uncovering his criminal activity in modern conditions. Attention is paid to the growth of the scale of organized crime, the spread of its influence on almost all spheres of public life, including the efforts of some of its representatives to control political and economic processes in the state, which creates a real threat to national security, which in turn, new tasks are presented to the subjects of the struggle and lead to the search for effective measures aimed at counteracting the specified negative social phenomenon. Attention is drawn to the fact that increasing the effectiveness of the fight against crime, which is gaining professionalism, organization, and transnationalization at the current stage, as well as strengthening the guarantee of ensuring the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of a person in criminal proceedings, require the improvement of the toolkit for obtaining evidence in the criminal process. The instability of the socio-political and economic situation in society, the imperfection of the mechanism of state administration and the lack of effective public control over the activities of state authorities, the rapid decline in the standard of living of the majority of the population, as well as a number of other factors have currently created favorable conditions for the development of organized crime. The work emphasizes that the performance of a special task to prevent or uncover the criminal activities of organized criminal groups is a special type of task to prevent or uncover the activities of an organized group or criminal organization, which can be performed only by participating in the criminal activities of the specified groups with the aim of gaining trust and obtaining the necessary information.
