CRIMINAL LAW AND PROCEDURE

Investigation of criminal cases within the framework of the conclusion procedural agreement

Abstract

The article is about the investigation of criminal cases within the framework of the procedural agreement. The authors pay attention to the concept of the institution of a procedural agreement and consider the order of its conclusion. Separate articles of the Criminal Procedure Code are analyzed and it is noted that the changes are primarily aimed at protecting the interests of the victim, and then the criminal. Subjects who can take the initiative when concluding a procedural agreement are considered. The authors note that the KPK RK significantly expanded the procedural rights of lawyers, and note that some scholars and practitioners, mainly from law enforcement agencies, were against the adoption of such innovations, including the granting of broad rights to lawyers.
