Abstract (English):
For a relatively long time there is consideration of criminal law maintenance for secrecy activity of law enforcement agencies in order to combat crime in the legislation, judicial practice and jurisprudence of some foreign countries. In many states this process has undergone numerous changes. The article presents the experience of legal regulation of causing harm during performance of activities, which is called operational-investigative in Russia. The provisions of legal acts and court decisions of Australia and the United States as the countries with the most developed regulatory and scientific basis for solving these problems are analyzed. It is noted that in both countries the root cause of the formation of the regulatory framework dedicated to harm causing during covert operations were specific criminal cases. The legislation of Australia, which establishes the procedure for controlled operations causing harm to the objects of criminal law protection, is considered. The conditions of the legitimacy of the controlled behavior are described. Attention is paid to the border admissibility of acts as well as the release of the Australian legislator since 2010, the so-called auxiliary crime during a controlled operation. Legal maintenance for acts of secret FBI employees in USA, conditions of their lawful conduct and the limits of harm causing are described. The author comes to a conclusion that the representatives of US law enforcement-enforcement agencies have extremely broad powers during operational implementation. Based on the review conclusions, including and recommendations for the improvement of the Russian legislation are drawn.
