Abstract

The purpose of the article is to study the legal regulation of detective and investigative activities through the prism of the comparative aspect. To achieve this goal, the author used a number of scientific methods, in particular, the content analysis of professional literature made it possible to determine the positions of scholars on the problems existing in the legal regulation of operational and investigative activities. The results of the study show that in the former Soviet countries, until 1991, the problems of organisation of operational and investigative activities were not demonstrated to the public. Only with the beginning of democratisation of society did the regulation of detective and investigative activities become more public, and the relevant clearer legislative norms were established. It is important that the legal acts regulated the process of operational and investigative activities in accordance with the observance of citizens' rights. It is established that in world practice, the results of operational and investigative activities are introduced in accordance with a court decision. The author concludes that similar systems of interaction are used in many European countries which pay great attention to establishing cooperation between law enforcement agencies.
