Abstract

 This article examines and thoroughly analyzes the need to ensure the safety of the victim, witnesses, expert, interpreter and other persons who are considered participants in the criminal process, as well as the current problems that arise. Taking into account the need for scientific (doctrinal) substantiation of the problem of personal security in criminal proceedings and the need for an adequate collection of the quantitative part of scientific research, in addition to the accepted legal documents, the person assisting the criminal process, as well as other participants in modern criminal justice, a number of opinions and comments were made on the problem of effective application of procedural security measures in investigative and judicial practice. In addition, the author considers the criminal procedural security of the participants in the process as a legal phenomenon that has a multilateral, contradictory, intersectoral and interdisciplinary character. It also concludes that the implementation of investigative and procedural actions, the principles enshrined in the Code of Criminal Procedure, the development of legal remedies and the use of a system of legal, organizational and other means of protection against external and internal illegal influences are aimed at applying the rules to achieve the goal of the process at the stage of law enforcement.
