Procedure for implementation of prosecutor's supervision over the activities of bodies of inquiry at the stage of preliminary investigation

Despite major changes that have occurred in the structural and systemic development of law enforcement agencies, especially in the activities of law enforcement officers in connection with the entry into force of the Federal law "on the police", the significant role of the Prosecutor's Supervisory function as a means of ensuring law and order in the fight against crime has remained. Given the fact that in 2007, investigators separated from the Prosecutor's office system and formed an independent structure of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the power of supervising the activities of investigators was differentiated, and the supervision of investigative bodies in the field of ensuring the fight against crime became dominant. The production of Prosecutor's supervision over the activities of bodies of inquiry is so significant that we can talk about the emergence of such a concept as "Prosecutor's inquiry". The procedural activity of investigative bodies in the field of crime prevention is determined by the nature and degree of Supervisory activities carried out by the Prosecutor's office. In this regard, we consider it necessary to conduct a study of the quality of the activities of the bodies of inquiry, to identify existing problems, if necessary, the relationship with the Prosecutor's office, in order to develop proposals aimed at improving the criminal procedure legislation in the field of procedural Prosecutor's supervision of the investigation.
