Anatoly Vyborny proposed amendments to the legislation on detective activity

09/25/2020 11:07:33 AM

Member of the State Duma Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption Anatoly Vyborny (faction "UNITED RUSSIA") proposed amendments to the legislation on detective activity. The parliamentarian discussed his initiatives with the participants of the round table on the topic "Detective activity as one of the elements of a comprehensive system of measures to identify persons committing illegal actions", which was held on Thursday, September 24, at the Public Chamber of Russia.

The participants raised the problem of using the potential of Russian detective agencies in the system of measures to protect public order in the regions. According to experts, the main problems stem from the imperfection of the legal regulation of detective and security activities, which does not fully correspond to reality. Now they are regulated by one law "On private detective and security activities", adopted back in 1992.

“The time has come to modernize private detectives, taking into account the requirements of the time, since a lot has changed over 30 years,” Vyborny believes. - Will legal entities be able to engage in private investigation today? Will the results of detective activities in courts be taken into account? These and other issues were discussed with the participants of the round table in the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation. I am glad that the experts supported the legislative initiatives developed by me in this regard. For example, in addition to the detective services already available in the legislation, I propose to include: the collection of information, objects and documents on civil, arbitration cases, cases of administrative offenses and enforcement proceedings; collection of information, items and documents for filing an application or claim to law enforcement agencies or to the court; collection of information on establishing the occurrence of an insured event; search for missing persons, search for debtors and their property, as well as search for a child according to an executive document ”.

MOSCOW, 24 Sep - RAPSI. Private detectives should have the status of participants in criminal proceedings, says Valery Vasiliev, a member of the Commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation for security and interaction with the POC. In his opinion, this will help relieve the work of the investigating authorities.

“The detective needs to be given a procedural character. For these purposes, it is necessary to make an appropriate addition, as an expert, to the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC) of the Russian Federation. If our legislative body "turns" to face these people, we will get the quality of work, we will get a solution to many vital issues of citizens - the police physically do not have time to track all these statements and complaints. Detectives would seriously help here, but they need to be given an appropriate procedural nature, streamlined and expanded their powers, ”Vasiliev said on Thursday at the RF OP during a roundtable on the problems of legislative regulation of detective activity.

He added that at the moment the investigator can involve in the case any expert who becomes a participant in the criminal process. In this regard, Vasiliev notes that it is not clear why an investigator or interrogator cannot involve a detective as a procedural figure.

Earlier, Anatoly Vyborny, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption, proposed making clarifications to the RF Code of Criminal Procedure, which would actually equate the work of detectives with operational-search activities. Thus, the information collected by private specialists can be attached to the criminal cases under consideration by both the Investigative Committee and the police.

Detective activity as one of the elements of a comprehensive system of measures to identify persons committing illegal actions

Today, in the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation, chaired by MS Anichkin, First Deputy Commissioner for Security and Interaction with the PMC of the RF OP, a round table was held on the topic "Detective activity as one of the elements of a comprehensive system of measures to identify persons committing unlawful acts" ...

At the moment, there are only a little more than nine hundred licensed private detectives in the country. The roundtable participants unanimously stated that the small number of private detectives is primarily due to the obligation to obtain a license, while there are many organizations on the market that carry out the same activity without a license.

The license "drives" into the framework of the law of the Russian Federation "On private detective and security activities in the Russian Federation" from 11.03.1992 N 2487-1. At the same time, the presence of a license does not give any additional powers, procedural status. Experts see a way out of this situation in a separate law on private detective activity, the bill of which has been undergoing various kinds of expertise for a year and a half.

In the law, it is necessary to clarify the legal, procedural status, to authorize detectives, at least, to request data from federal databases, to work independently with law enforcement agencies of neighboring states, to determine the licensee's body in this area of the Ministry of Internal Affairs instead of the National Guard. I believe that after the legislation is finalized, professionals who have left the security forces will be able to fully realize their skills and special knowledge, thereby increasing the role of the non-state security sector.

"Time urgently requires the expansion of the powers of the detective"

The OP of the Russian Federation stated that the legislation regulating detective activity needs to be reformed

On September 24, the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation hosted a round table "Detective activity as one of the elements of a comprehensive system of measures to identify persons committing illegal actions".
The non-state sphere is a powerful auxiliary tool that is ineffectively used by the country's law enforcement agencies, said Mikhail Anichkin, First Deputy Chairman of the Commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation on Security and Interaction with the PMC.

"The non-state security sphere includes private security, detective, information and analytical enterprises, private scientific institutions, enterprises producing special equipment, etc. According to experts, about 3.5 million people are employed in the sector, and it is important for us to understand to what extent and what place the detective community can occupy in the system for detecting and preventing illegal actions, taking measures for the security of the state," he explained.

The head of the Scientific Council of the Institute of Security and Sustainable Development Problems, Valery Shestakov, drew attention to the legal status of detective activity and the imperfection of the current legislation, a number of formulations of which do not reflect the essence and legal nature of this activity.

"The formulations" collection of information on criminal cases"," collection of information on civil cases "allow us to judge detective activity as parallel to civil and criminal proceedings, whereas in fact a detective collects information for participants in civil, criminal, administrative and other proceedings — he has civil relations with participants in these processes, he ensures their constitutional rights to protect their rights and interests," the expert said. — The law on private detective and Security activities provides a detective with the opportunity to conclude a contract for collecting information for a participant in civil, criminal, administrative processes, but judges do not accept this information, because the detective himself is not a participant in the process."

Valery Shestakov explained that appropriate adjustments have been made to the draft of the new law on private detective activity, which eliminate this contradiction. Among other legislative innovations, he pointed out, the expansion of the range of services provided by the detective is the collection of information for persons who are not participants in the process, the collection of information for business negotiations, about counterfeit products, etc. In addition, the expert insists on the need to adopt two separate laws on private detective and private security activities — there is nothing in common between these types of activities, he claims.

Oleg Klimochkin, director of the Security Research Center, drew attention to the double standards on the part of the state regulator for monitoring the implementation of private detective and security activities. In practice, lawyers and various law firms are engaged in collecting information on civil and criminal cases. Their activities are regulated by the Law on Advocacy, the Criminal Procedure and Civil Procedure Codes and do not require special licensing, unlike detectives who cannot work without such a license.

"We need to conceptually determine the question: is this type of detective activity necessary at all, is the approach to licensing the types of services provided outdated, and is it necessary to license this type of activity at all? Oleg Klimochkin asks himself. "As an alternative, I propose to consider expanding the scope of private detective activities, including all services related to personal data of citizens and commercial secrets of organizations."

He also recalled that currently the licensing body for private detective and security activities is Rosgvardiya, which has neither specialists with relevant licensing experience, nor a functional interest in interacting with private detectives: "We see it expedient to regulate the activities of private detectives and we want to try to fix the algorithm for providing certain types of detective services at least at the level of national standards."

Anatoly Vyborny, a member of the State Duma Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, confirmed that a new request for detective work has been formed in society: the idea that a detective is a person spying on someone else's life has become a thing of the past, new requests have appeared — business intelligence, search for contractors, etc.

"One of the serious problems is that in practice, the services performed by a detective are not always accepted as evidence in a case by investigators, courts. We need a legislative norm so that the variability of making such decisions by investigators or judges is minimal, " he supported the participants of the round table.

Valery Vasiliev, a member of the Commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation on Security and Interaction with the Public Monitoring Commission (PMC), touched upon the problem of the development of detective work and the institute of detectives as one of the significant tools for protecting the rights of citizens and an important element of the non-state security sphere. He noted that for many years this area has not been given due attention, which is reflected, in particular, in the underdevelopment of this industry and the legal framework, as well as in the attitude to this activity as not of interest to society and the state.

"This is an erroneous view. This area of activity needs more attention and development. The figure of a detective, without replacing an investigator, an investigator, an operative, a civil court, should become an important component in protecting the rights and interests of citizens. His powers should include not only detective work. Why is it that a media representative, who often does not have a legal education, can collect information about a person or event that interests him in almost any way, and a person who is professionally trained and has the appropriate license is limited in his abilities? Time strongly requires the expansion of the powers of the detective. After all, detective work is also a service sector. It is difficult to develop entrepreneurship in this industry without providing the appropriate authorities. Isn't this the reason for the underdevelopment of the market for these services?" — a member of the OP of the Russian Federation is perplexed.

Valery Vasiliev suggests thinking about the possibility of attracting detectives to provide not assistance, but real assistance to law enforcement agencies. This will require making certain changes to the criminal procedure code and other regulatory documents, he clarifies, but this is a requirement of the time, the need to change the paradigm of relations between the state and society.

The president of the Association of Detective Professionals Alexander Lyubimenko also insists on providing the same licensing conditions for all subjects of this field of activity: "Similar activities of security services, consulting, audit, law firms, private intelligence — they are all at least direct competitors. But only detectives fall under the licensing requirements, and these citizens and organizations are taken out of the control of the state, although they play on the same field."

"The subject of private detective work is much more subtle than it seems at first glance, because it concerns a unique cross-section of the non-state security sphere. The opinion of the expert community is important to us, which we will analyze and send to the relevant authorities in the form of final recommendations, " Mikhail Anichkin, moderator of the round table, summed up the results.

La Duma Estatal ha desarrollado una nueva ley sobre la actividad de detectives
El diputado de Rusia Unida propuso dividir la regulación de las actividades de detective y seguridad, ampliar los poderes de los detectives y también introducir el concepto de "misterio de detective". La comunidad profesional está hablando de la reforma atrasada de la industria


Por qué necesitamos una nueva ley
El diputado de la Duma Estatal de Rusia Unida Anatoly Vyborny ha preparado una nueva ley"Sobre la actividad de detective". El texto del proyecto de ley fue revisado por RBC. El miércoles 16 de octubre, su autor planea someterlo a discusión con representantes de la comunidad de detectives y agencias gubernamentales en la Cámara de Comercio e Industria. Entonces el Elector lo enviará al gobierno para su examen.

"Creo que lo presentaremos ya en esta sesión. Es hora de modernizar a los detectives privados teniendo en cuenta los requisitos de la época, porque mucho ha cambiado en los últimos 27 años", explicó a RBC el diputado, que es miembro de la Comisión Parlamentaria de Seguridad y Anticorrupción.

Según él, solo unos pocos miles de detectives trabajan con licencias oficiales, también hay un mercado gris de servicios de detectives que no está controlado por la regulación. Para que la situación de los detectives que trabajan legalmente sea más atractiva para los participantes en el mercado, es necesario darles no solo deberes, sino también derechos claramente definidos, cree.

The draft law proposes to separate the legislative regulation of detective and security activities. Ahora están reguladas por una ley sobre actividades de detectives privados y seguridad, aprobada en 1992.

Cómo cambiará la ley de detectives
En un artículo separado, se da la definición de un misterio de detective. "Un secreto de detective es cualquier información relacionada con la prestación de servicios de detective al cliente. Una organización de detectives, un detective no tiene el derecho de divulgar la información proporcionada a ellos por el cliente en relación con la prestación de servicios de detectives, sin el consentimiento del cliente", dice el texto de la factura. Al mismo tiempo, se aclara por separado que las medidas para la interacción de los detectives con los organismos encargados de hacer cumplir la ley no pueden violar las obligaciones de los detectives en virtud del contrato con el cliente.
En el título de la nueva ley, se propone eliminar la frase "en la Federación de Rusia", que permitirá la prestación de servicios de detective en el extranjero "de conformidad con las normas de la OMC y la legislación del estado de prestación de servicios de seguridad".
Se propone introducir en la ley, junto con un detective privado, el concepto de organización de detectives.
Se propone otorgar a los detectives el derecho de enviar "solicitudes oficiales para el suministro de certificados, características y otros documentos necesarios para la prestación de servicios de detectives calificados"a organismos estatales, asociaciones públicas y otras organizaciones. Las autoridades especificadas estarán obligadas a responder a la solicitud por escrito.
Se propone establecer el deber de los detectives de asegurar los riesgos de responsabilidad por violación del contrato con el cliente, los riesgos de responsabilidad por causar daños a la vida, salud o bienes de terceros al realizar actividades.
También se propone permitir que los detectives se reúnan con el permiso del órgano de investigación, el investigador, el investigador o el tribunal con el sospechoso, el acusado o el acusado en caso de celebrar un contrato con ellos para reunir información sobre una causa penal y siempre que se opte contra ellos por una medida preventiva en forma de detención o arresto domiciliario.
Además de los servicios de investigación ya disponibles en la legislación, el proyecto de nueva ley incluye: la recopilación de información, objetos y documentos en casos civiles, de arbitraje, casos de delitos administrativos y procedimientos de ejecución; la recopilación de información, objetos y documentos para presentar una solicitud o reclamación a los organismos encargados de hacer cumplir la ley o a los tribunales; la recopilación de información sobre la determinación de la ocurrencia de un hecho asegurado; la búsqueda de personas desaparecidas, la búsqueda de deudores y sus bienes, así como la búsqueda de un niño en virtud de un documento de ejecución.
Cómo se relacionan los detectives con la iniciativa
El estado subestima las posibilidades de desarrollar el instituto de detectives privados, dice Viktor Ananyev, director de la Fundación Instituto de Seguridad y Problemas de Desarrollo Sostenible, quien fue invitado a participar en el trabajo sobre el proyecto de ley como experto.

"Los medios de comunicación asocian detectives privados principalmente con el trabajo en casos de familia, pero en realidad la gama de servicios es mucho más amplia — es principalmente la recopilación de información en los intereses del cliente para participar en disputas administrativas y civiles, la búsqueda de personas desaparecidas", dice Ananyev. - Los detectives, que en la mayoría de los casos se convierten en ex agentes de la ley que se han retirado del servicio, ya podrían hacer frente con eficacia a estas tareas. En lugar de ayudarlos y crear condiciones para que las empresas puedan asumir una carga social específica, nuestros organismos encargados de hacer cumplir la ley se han retirado del desarrollo de esta industria."En su opinión, las enmiendas propuestas con respecto a la ampliación de los poderes de los detectives pueden dar un nuevo impulso al mercado legal de los servicios de detectives.

Según Sergey Lyubimenko, Presidente de la Asociación de Profesionales de Detectives y presidente de la junta de la Asociación autorregulada de Detectives privados "Oficina Nacional de Detectives", solo el 20% del mercado de servicios de detectives está representado por participantes con licencia. No hay más de mil en el país, enfatiza Lyubimenko.

"El resto corresponde a las actividades de los servicios de seguridad, las empresas de auditoría, las entidades de inteligencia empresarial, etc. Por supuesto, redunda en interés del Estado sacar a este segmento de las sombras. Nuestra propuesta para el proyecto de ley que se está desarrollando es transferir las licencias del regulador (Rosgvardiya) a las organizaciones empresariales autorreguladas, y Rosgvardiya ya supervisará el cumplimiento de todas las normas por parte de la SRO", dice Lyubimenko. Según él, tales propuestas encuentran una respuesta positiva en la Rosgvardiya, ya que permiten liberar a los departamentos de licencias y licencias de la Rosgvardiya de trabajos técnicos innecesarios, liberar a la empresa de burocracia innecesaria e interesar a los líderes del mercado en su autorregulación.
