Abstract

ABSTRACT: Investigative tactics comprise a system of tactical techniques developed on the basis of special sciences, including logic, psychology, generalization of investigative practice, and others. All constituent elements of investigative tactics serve for the application of logical methods of investigation by the investigator, the shaping of the psychology of his relationship with the participants of investigative actions, the organization of systematic investigation of the crime and effective collection of evidence in accordance with the norms of the Criminal Procedure Code. One effective method for clarifying certain evidentiary information contained in witness statements, victims' statements, and statements of suspects and accused persons is their verification at the crime scene. A significant number and different nature of tasks, which are solved in the process of verification of testimony to the crime scene, indicate its significant possibilities as a means of proof in the detection and establishment of the truth on the committed crime. KEYWORDS: evidence, evidentiary procedure, tactical procedure, verification of statements at the crime scene
