Resumo

The article deals with the criminal procedure, psychological and tactical aspects of conducting a search, as one of the most important investigative actions carried out in order to compensate for the damage caused by a crime at the stage of preliminary investigation. The authors substantiate the position that пwhen conducting a search, the investigator (inquirer) should focus his efforts on such aspects of its production that directly affect the effectiveness of all activities aimed at compensating for damage caused by a crime.  It is established that the importance of conducting a search in the general array of procedural actions aimed at compensating for damage caused by a crime is also evidenced by specific examples from the practical activities of preliminary investigation bodies. In conclusion, the authors propose to supplement Article 182 of the Code of Criminal Procedure with Part 17 stating that search may be carried out for the purpose of detecting and seizing objects, documents and valuables that, in accordance with Articles 81 and 82 of this Code, are subject to return to the rightful owner, if this is possible without prejudice to evidence.
