Exercise 5 Translate this text using a dictionary.

Дознание – это собирание официальными органами сведений об определенном обстоятельстве или факте или же собирание доказательств такого факта. Дознание может иметь место по отношению ко всякого рода делам, подлежащим судебному рассмотрению, гражданским, административным и уголовным, и при всяком положении дела. И государственные органы, и должностные лица, уполномоченные законом производить дознание и имеющие другие процессуальные полномочия, именуются органами дознания.

Органы дознания при расследовании уголовных дел осуществляют две группы процессуальных действий:

–дознание по уголовным делам, возбуждаемым в отношении конкретных лиц (так называемые очевидные преступления), по преступлениям небольшой и средней тяжести. По уголовным делам об иных преступлениях этих категорий дознание может производиться только по указанию прокурора;

–производство неотложных следственных действий (осмотр, обыск, выемка, задержание и допрос подозреваемых, потерпевших и свидетелей,

освидетельствование и др.) по уголовным делам, по которым предварительное следствие обязательно.

В органе дознания выделяются две процессуальные фигуры:

–руководитель (начальник органа дознания) – это должностное лицо органа дознания, уполномоченное поручать производство дознания дознавателю и наделенное Уголовно-процессуальным кодексом отдельными процессуальными полномочиями для обеспечения процессуального контроля за производством дознания;

–дознаватель – это должностное лицо, которому начальник органа дознания поручает вести дознание; с этого момента он приобретает предусмотренные законом процессуальные права и обязанности.

TEXT 6.

Police as the main body of inquiry.

The main body of inquiry is now the police, because it carries the bulk of work on the admission, review report of a crime, inquests and protocol production. Police is considered a universal body of inquiry, because the law does not limit its jurisdiction to certain categories of cases and therefore the police have the right to initiate criminal proceedings for any offense.

In accordance with the RF Law "On the police" the police of the Russian Federation is divided into the criminal police and public security police. The police work under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Department of Internal Affairs of the republics, territories and regions - the RF subjects.

Criminal Police.

The main tasks of the criminal police are the prevention, suppression and detection of crime, for which a preliminary investigation is mandatory , as well as organization and implementation of the search for fugitives from the bodies of inquiry, investigation and trial, those evading the execution of criminal punishment , missing persons and other persons in cases envisaged by law. The criminal police act as investigative bodies . At the same time if they have reasonable cause to believe a crime has been committed police officers have to conduct urgent investigative actions to restore and preserve traces of the crime . The criminal police works in close cooperation with prosecutors and investigative agencies, and after submitting the case to the investigator - just on

his behalf (except for certain powers in cases where the perpetrator could not be determined).

Police of Public Safety .

In accordance with the RF legislation the public safety police objectives include:

-ensuring the personal safety of citizens;

-protection of public order and public security;

-prevention and suppression of crimes and misdemeanors;

-disclosure of the crimes for which a preliminary investigation is not necessary, and investigate crime in the form of an inquiry;

-provision within its competence to citizens, officials, enterprises, institutions, organizations and associations.

It is important to indicate the maximum proximity of the body to the needs of the population of a particular territory. The public safety police (local police) consists primarily of offices and authorities' of immediate response who wear uniforms .

The very existence of these agencies and services closer to the people of this territory, its objects, has a considerable preventive effect and provides the opportunity to take the necessary measures to prevent or suppress crime. The following departments are within the structure of public safety police:

-inquiry

-district police

-juvenile inspection handling affairs of minors

-department for combating offenses in the sphere of consumer market, execution of administrative legislation
