OPERATIONAL-SEARCH SCIENCE ABOUT THE SEARCH AND IDENTIFICATION ACTIVITIES OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS BODIES
In this scientific article, the author, in order to pose the problem through the prism of the subject of operational-search science, expresses the ideas related to understanding the essence, content, place and role of the search and identification activities of internal affairs bodies and their criminal investigation units in solving the tasks of operational-search activities provided for in the federal law «On operational-search activities». The study and analysis of many years of practice show that the problem itself is not new, but it has become significantly more relevant due to the change in the environment in which, in particular, criminal investigation units search for persons hiding from the bodies of inquiry, investigation and court, evading criminal punishment, as well as the search for missing persons. A successful solution to this problem, in our opinion, is unthinkable without a preliminary scientific understanding of it within the framework of operational-search science, its inherent techniques and means.
