The problems of detecting and investigating crimes against justice committed by professional participants in legal proceedings were researched. The commission of these crimes by a judge, prosecutor, lawyer or other professional participants in the legal proceedings significantly increases the degree of public danger, and also complicates the detection of such criminal behavior and subsequent investigation. This is due to the special professional status of such persons, their inclusion in pre-trial and judicial procedures, daily work with colleagues, who in the future should identify and investigate crimes against justice. That is why the article draws attention to the existing special procedures and problems of investigating crimes against justice, provided for professional participants in legal proceedings (production).
Particular attention was paid to the peculiarities of the procedures related to the need for investigating authorities in cooperation with the High Council of Justice, which is authorized by the relevant law to carry out the functions of removing judges from administering justice, giving consent to detain a judge, etc. It is also important to notify the judge of the suspicion that the General the prosecutor or his deputy. Also important is the need to notify the judge of a suspicion that the Attorney General or his deputy is conducting. It was also interesting that the direct requirement of the law is sometimes violated by ignoring it by representatives of law enforcement bodies, which entails various consequences (for the examples given in the article).
