Abstract

Проаналізовано правові акти, що врегульовують поняття «приватність». Узагальнено наукові погляди, охарактеризовано зміст, організаційно-правові засади застосування установлення місцезнаходження радіоелектронного засобу. Обґрунтовано необхідність і можливість зміни організаційно-правових засад застосування установлення місцезнаходження радіоелектронного засобу, що безпосередньо вплинуло б на підвищення ефективності попередження, виявлення та припинення кримінальних правопорушень. The legal acts that regulate the concept of «privacy» are analysed. The content, organizational and legal principles for the application of establishment of the radio-electronic device location as a kind of law enforcement intelligence measure and covert investigation procedures are described. The scientifc views on the essence of the establishment of the radio-electronic device location are summarized. The legal view of the legislative body on referring the establishment of the radio-electronic device location in law enforcement intelligence operations to one of the types of intrusion upon a person’s privacy is questioned. The necessity and the possibility of change of the organizational and legal principles of the application of establishment of a radio-electronic device location are substantiated, which would directly affect the increase in effciency, perseverance, and, in general, the effectiveness of the use of law enforcement intelligence measures and operative search measures to prevent, detect and stop criminal offenses. It is proved that in case when the purpose of the establishment of a radio-electronic device location is exclusively localization of a known or unknown person in connection with verifcation of implication in illegal activities, then the specifed law enforcement intelligence measure does not apply to the variety of intrusion upon a person’s privacy, and therefore is without prejudice to the rights of such a person. In this case the national legislation comprehensively protects the person, as far as it obliges the subject of law enforcement intelligence activities to destroy the obtained in such a way actual data, which may directly or indirectly relate to a person’s personal or family life. Under condition of the introduction of appropriate amendments to the Law of Ukraine «On law enforcement intelligence operations» the establishment of the radio-electronic equipment location will be possible to carry out within the framework of covert work or within the framework of the criminal intelligence analysis regarding the use of the law enforcement intelligence operations, the authorization for which should be given exclusively by the head of the regional offce of the subject of law enforcement intelligence activities. Respectively, the offcial body, exercising the control functions over the legitimateness of the law enforcement intelligence operations, is obliged to exclude the possibility of unjustifed, groundless and disproportionate invasion of the criminal intelligence unit in the enforcement by a person of his own right to privacy.
