On the Issue of Legal Regulation and the Powers of Law Enforcement Agencies During the Identification Procedure

An attempt to analyze and legally evaluate one of the measures of state coercion used by law enforcement agencies was made in this article. Verification of identity documents and subsequent identification is necessary not only to prevent a person from committing unlawful acts, the manifestation of an imperious volitional influence of law enforcement agencies that supports the authority of state structures, but is also justified from a procedural point of view, for the technical procedure for preparing documents, in connection with the committed offense. The purpose of the study is not only legal analysis, but also the identification of gaps in lawful regulation, as well as consideration of possible ways to resolve them. In addition, it seems impossible to study one of the measures of administrative support, in the absence of a legal assessment of the sources of lawful regulation in this area. Conclusions.
