Criminal investigations in modern Russia are subject to the Law only when the suspects or accused are government officials and officials. An ordinary citizen has virtually no chance of enforcing his rights - the methods of inquiry and investigation of the circumstances of criminal cases are based on the “inner conviction” of the investigator, the use of third-degree interrogation to obtain “confessions”, the detention of suspects in inhumane conditions in pre-trial detention centers, meaningless replies from the prosecutor’s office, “loss” documents that can confirm a person’s innocence, falsification of evidence and similar techniques. Servants of the national Themis really do not like to remember Civil and Constitutional Rights, considering them a “interference” in their hard work in the Law Enforcement field. This book provides very specific and practical advice on how to actually defend your rights at any stage of the investigation and with any evidence base for the accusation.
