Вісник кримінального судочинства(3), 78–84.https://ir.library.knu.ua/handle/15071834/24153According to the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine main objectives of the criminal proceedings is to protect individuals, society and the state from criminal ofenses, the protection of rights,freedoms and legitimate interests of participants in criminal proceedings, as well as the insurance ofquick, comprehensive and impartial investigation and trial in order that everyone who committed acriminal ofence were prosecuted in proportion to his guilt, no one innocent were accused or convicted, and no one were subjected to ungrounded procedural compulsion and that an appropriate legalprocedure applied to each party to criminal proceedings. It must be emphasized that the legislatureas a separate problem highlights the need to protect rights and interests of all participants in criminalproceedings. It is obvious that the same requirement applies to pre-trial investigation. Due to thespecifcity of an investigation of criminal ofenses, the legislator provides much broader powers to theprosecution than the defense. Thus, the basis of a guarantee of the rights, freedoms and legitimateinterests in criminal proceedings is to follow the procedural form of pre-trial investigation. Only strictobservance of the law during the investigation of criminal ofenses will fully ensure that all tasks ofcriminal proceedings will be fulflled. But to perform such observance the law by itself must be clearand explicit. Unfortunately, the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine doesn’t fulflled such requirements. This can be explained by relative novelty of the criminal procedure law and some radicalinnovations that were introduced in 2012. However, the specifcs of the criminal procedural activitiesrequire the improvement of criminal procedural law. And one of these institutions, which needs immediate improvement is the institution of preliminary investigation deadlines.Стаття присвячена дослідженню правового регулювання визначення початку та закінчення досудового розслідування.
