Abstract

The aim of the research is to analyze national legislations in the states united by the Eurasian legal space that can regulate legal activities to ensure national security from internal threats and decrease the level of security of persons involved in criminal proceedings. The aim of the study was also to establish the problems arising in the course of application of security measures to ensure the rights and interests of the said persons and search for ways to resolve them. The special attention is given to an estimation of norms of criminal procedure legislations of the states which are a part of the Eurasian Union, protecting the legitimate rights and interests of participants of criminal proceedings, and also the provisions containing in the Agreement “About protection of participants of criminal proceedings” of the states-participants of the Commonwealth of Independent States, in national laws “About the state protection of participants of criminal proceedings” and the State programs accepted on their basis “Safety of participants of criminal proceedings.” The novelty of the research is determined by the consideration and assessment of the degree of mutual influence of the legislations of the Eurasian Union countries with the purpose of their improvement to increase the effectiveness of ensuring the security of persons participating in criminal proceedings. We grounded the expediency of the further convergence in the norms of Russian and other Eurasian states legislation in the protection of rights and interests of persons, participating in the criminal proceedings. The main directions of improvement of criminal procedure regulation are singled out and recommendations on optimal use of criminal procedure resources are formulated in order to ensure effective security of participants of criminal proceedings from threats to their life and health inside the state.
