Abstract
The article analyzes institute of the security assurance for people involved in criminal proceedings. It is established that despite the significant contribution made to solve important issues of this institute, the legal regulation of the process of security assurance for participants in criminal proceedings, as well as the mechanism of such assurance practically need immediate improvement, modernization, and further comprehensive research. Based on the analysis of the current state of security of participants in criminal proceedings, the reasons that affect the efficiency of such activities and measures to eliminate them, namely: financing of programs to ensure the security for people involved in criminal proceedings (creating a separate state fund through financial penalties for damages caused by crimes and funds that criminals make on bail); organizational support (establishment of appropriate terms of security measures, professional training of law enforcement officers who carry out security measures); establishing proper interaction between entities that protect such persons, etc. By analyzing these problems, we can conclude that they mainly lie in three major areas: legal, economic and organizational. The drawbacks in the legal mechanism for security ensuring for people involved in criminal proceedings in Ukraine are highlighted; the necessity and ways of improvement of the legislation in this area taking into account the world standards are substantiated. In this regard, we propose to at least supplement the CPC of Ukraine with a separate Chapter 10-1, setting it out as follows: “Application of procedural and special measures for the security of people involved in criminal proceedings”. It is also proposed that to ensure the security of people involved in criminal proceedings, it is necessary to create a special structural unit in the law enforcement system of Ukraine.
