There are many life situations when it is necessary to obtain the most complete and truthful information about a person. For example, when hiring, each employer needs to know whether the applicant has been prosecuted or served a sentence in specialized institutions. Bank employees also check the reliability of citizens before giving them a loan. In addition, a criminal case by last name may need to be found by the participant in the process, who for some reason was unable to attend the final hearing. You can obtain the necessary information through the Register of all ongoing court cases on specialized Internet resources.

Rules of law

According to the adopted law FZ-262 on the provision of open access to information about the activities of different courts in all subjects of the federation, you can obtain information about court decisions, initiation of criminal cases, meetings and orders, that is, complete information via the Internet. Despite the fact that the database is open to any user, some information is still not publicly available.

It is prohibited to disclose the following information:

about serious and especially serious crimes before the verdict is announced;
matters related to state security;
all questions and cases regarding the adoption of minor children;
cases in which a person is declared incompetent;
a number of crimes related to sexual integrity;
when making changes to acts of civil registration (registry office).

The list of exceptions is specified in Article 15 of the above-mentioned Federal Law-262.

Is it possible to independently find out about the initiation of a criminal case?

Your own knowledge can help in resolving the issue. So, in order to initiate a criminal case, certain deadlines are provided. They are common to all crimes, but can be changed in individual circumstances.

In general, the initiation of a criminal case means that there is a need to conduct criminal proceedings. The decision is made as a result of analysis of available data and is supported by the publication of an appropriate document in which this fact is recorded.

There are cases when a person is detained, and while he is in the police, he cannot understand whether a criminal case has been initiated or not. His relatives also show justified concern about this issue. To clarify the situation, you need to look at the Criminal Procedure Code, namely Article 144, which contains information about the deadlines. According to it, the urgency of the procedure for investigators and interrogators can be determined in the following format:

from the moment the application is submitted, it must be checked for three days, as a result of which a decision must be made: to open a criminal case or to refuse it;
if there are sufficient grounds, the inquirer or investigator has the right to apply to his superiors with a request that the inspection be extended to ten days (the reasons for this may be, for example, the need to conduct an examination);
if it is necessary to check the organization’s documentation or conduct an audit, the responsible persons send a corresponding petition to the prosecutor’s office, where they have the right to decide to extend the period to thirty days.

A lawyer is not a magician

When inviting a lawyer to defend you, it is important to remember that he does not have miraculous techniques and will not be able to ruin the case with the snap of a finger. Especially if the evidence base is generally objective and does not speak in favor of the defendant. Realizing that you have committed a crime, you should not demand miracles from a lawyer - he will take all measures to identify possible errors during the investigation, which will play a good role even in the presence of guilt, but in the presence of real and admitted guilt and involvement in the crime, it will be very difficult to “ruin” the case and very problematic.

However, this is not a reason to refuse a lawyer, whose help may not completely free you from criminal liability, but will help you get out of an unpleasant situation with minimal losses.

Where to go

If the information is unknown, then you need to wait for the period provided by law, and then contact the necessary authorities. So, you can find out this information in the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to which the application was submitted. Art. 145 of the Code of Criminal Procedure provides for the obligations of investigative bodies to timely inform interested citizens about the results.

Thus, if it turns out that a criminal trial has not been initiated within the time period specified by law, and the corresponding resolution has not been issued to refuse to initiate a criminal case, a person can safely write a complaint to the prosecutor’s office. To do this, you need to submit a statement in which you report the inaction of law enforcement officers.

What Internet services to use

The virtual network today offers enormous opportunities for users to find the necessary information, for example, if the last name of the person of interest is provided. But not all the information here turns out to be reliable. For example, to obtain data related to government agencies, it is best to use only official sources. For example, you can find out about a court hearing via the Internet through the State Automated System “Justice”. This information is openly provided to all users.

Important! It is not possible to check whether a case has been opened against a person or not on the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But even in the police department itself, data on initiating a criminal case may not be disclosed to every person, since they are confidential. Therefore, you should not trust sources on the Internet that promise that they have the necessary information. Most likely, the information there will turn out to be untrue, and the user will have to fork out money to gain access to it. As a result, he will be left without money and information.

Prosecutor career

Which unit is better depends on the individual; they pay the same. The state prosecution is tied to the court - as long as the court works, that’s how long they work. And supervision—how many complaints you receive, that’s how many you handle.

Career growth is generally a provocative question, even for an anonymous conversation. I think if you look at the family and other connections of district prosecutors, everything will become clear. It happens that a general’s son makes a career in the prosecutor’s office, and sometimes someone comes in response to an advertisement. Otherwise, this is also a question of the team, as far as I know, if the regional prosecutor changes, then his people become district prosecutors, and those who were in their places go to the apparatus and lose real power, they are engaged in statistics. It would be good at the entry level: go into the apparatus and make a career there. But [leaving there] from the post of district prosecutor is no longer possible.

You also need to ask at least the district prosecutors about bribes. I didn’t hold a candle, probably some issues are being resolved, but this is at the level of assumptions. Although I was the only one of my colleagues who walked to work. It makes sense to contact the district prosecutor, he will tell [his subordinates], and no one will ask. But the assistant prosecutor can be reported, and the same police will say that something is wrong with him.

When the notification arrives

As stated above, it is the responsibility of law enforcement officials to inform individuals about the adoption of a particular decision. Regardless of whether the case is initiated or it is decided to refuse it, the registered application is assigned an identification number. The applicant and other persons must be notified of the further fate of the application.

If a decision is made to initiate a criminal case (based on Article 146 of the Code of Criminal Procedure) or refuse to do so (based on Article 148 of the Code of Criminal Procedure), employees must send a corresponding notification with a copy within one day.

This procedure applies not only in Russia. Many neighboring countries in the post-Soviet space, for example, Kazakhstan and Ukraine, have adopted similar rules.

Deputy Head of the Main Investigation Department (GSU) of the Investigative Committee, Major General of Justice Sergei Zolotarev, dismissed last week by decree of President Putin, was appointed to the Prosecutor General's Office. The head of the supervisory department, Igor Krasnov, based on a report from his deputy, also a member of the investigative committee, Anatoly Razikin, appointed General Zolotarev as the head of one of the key departments of the Prosecutor General’s Office - the main department for supervision of investigation, inquiry and operational investigative activities.

According to the order of Prosecutor General Krasnov, the basis for hiring Sergei Zolotarev was a statement on his part, supported by a report from Deputy Prosecutor General Anatoly Razinkin appointed on May 20. General Zolotarev, having transferred to the Prosecutor General's Office, received not only a promotion to the head of the main department (in the Investigative Committee he was deputy head of the Main Investigations Directorate of the Investigative Committee), but also a significant increase in salary. His salary was set at the rate of 88% of the salary of the first deputy prosecutor general Alexander Buksman, 70% of additional payment for length of service, another 50% for the complexity of the work and 10% as the holder of the badge of an honorary employee of the prosecutor's office, which he received even before moving to the investigative committee. Let us note that before joining the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the general headed the liquidated department of procedural control of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, having gained the necessary experience in supervisory work, which he now uses in the Prosecutor General’s Office.

Anatoly Razinkin will supervise the work of the main department, the head of which is Mr. Zolotarev, who has become a senior adviser to justice. He also retained control over the directorate for oversight of compliance with laws on federal security, countering extremism and terrorism, as well as the directorate for oversight of the military-industrial complex.

Let us note that the main department for supervising the investigation was headed by Yuri Karapetyan, a native of the Moscow Region Prosecutor's Office, about whose work, according to some information, Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov had questions.

It should be expected that in the near future two other main departments will also receive new heads: the Main Directorate for Supervision of the Investigation of Particularly Important Cases (approves charges in cases being processed by investigators from the central offices of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB), the head of which is Vladimir Yudin, who has reached 70 -years old, retired, and the Main Directorate for Supervision of the Execution of Anti-Corruption Legislation of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation. Alexander Rusetsky, who has headed this main board since 2015, also resigned.
