The article proposes the tactics of actions of the investigator (head of the investigative unit) of the bodies, which exercise control over the observance of tax legislation, based on the nature of the known circumstances about the criminal offense and persons involved in its commission. The following investigative situations were distinguished by the results of consideration of allegations and reports of criminal offenses: signs of a crime were found to be the basis for entering information in the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations and the commencement of pre-trial investigation; no crime was detected, why to carry out verification measures in view of Part 1 of Art. 214 of the CPC of Ukraine and in accordance with the Law of Ukraine “On Operational Investigation Activities”; the fact of committing a criminal offense is not confirmed by the materials of the audit (with the conclusion drawn). It is emphasized that the source of information about the identity of the offender can be considered the search for witnesses, forensic investigation of documents that fixed the registration of the movement of funds from the moment of their unlawful withdrawal from the bank account before carrying out operations on their legalization (laundering). It has been determined that the development of forensic methods of investigation of fraud with financial resources are dominant tactical tasks, while others are subordinate. The analysis of investigative practice shows that cognitive tactical tasks of investigation differ from each other not only in content but also in degree of complexity and, accordingly, by means of solution. It is concluded that the complex application of procedural, operational, search and organizational measures to solve the tactical tasks of the initial stage of investigation of fraud with financial resources are not exhaustive, since it is impossible to formulate universal investigation schemes applicable in any case, how it is impossible to predict the actions of criminals in advance. Therefore, each specific situation of investigation requires the investigator, first of all, creative activity within the framework of criminal procedural regulation on the basis of the generalized practices in science, theoretical provisions and methodological recommendations.

The scientific article is devoted to covering some aspects of the investigation of a group violation of public order. The essence and system of typical investigative situations of the specified actions for their faster and more effective investigation are considered. It is noted that the activities of law enforcement officers should have a specific structure, which will vary depending on the specific circumstances that occur in the investigation of certain criminal offenses. That is, the algorithmization of the criminal proceedings for a particular category of offenses should be the main task of forensic scientists. At the same time, it is necessary to understand that it is impossible to build an algorithm of actions without identifying certain situations that may arise during the investigation. Criminal proceedings for group violations of public order are no exception. These acts violate public order and are quite difficult to distinguish from the accompanying acts: riots and hooliganism. And it is thanks to the correct course of action of police officers at the initial stage of the investigation that the greatest possible amount of evidence will be gathered. The author supports the position of scholars who formulate a typical investigative situation as a set of conditions that are objectively formed in the investigation of criminal offenses, create a unique situation at a given time, which poses the investigator the problem of choosing the appropriate course of action and tactical decisions. After analyzing the above situations and factors influencing their formation, as well as materials of criminal proceedings, the author formulated the following typical investigative situations in the investigation of a group violation of public order: persons who committed a group violation were detained at the scene, the victim witnesses, eyewitnesses and available material traces of a criminal act; persons who have committed a group violation of public order, disappeared from the scene and are known only by appearance, available witnesses and material traces of a criminal act; traces of illegal actions were found, the offenders are unknown, witnesses were found at the scene.

The scientific article deals with some aspects of crime investigation. The identity of the offender is considered as an element of forensic characteristics. Investigating the identity of the offender provides the investigation with a number of additional features. The identity of the offender as an element of forensic characteristics is a set of socially significant features and attitudes that characterize a person guilty of violating the criminal law, in combination with other conditions and circumstances affecting his criminal behavior. In particular, the information about it allows to distinguish the data necessary for the organization of the most effective search of the person who committed the crime, and subsequently – its exposition, provide elimination of the causes and conditions of committing criminal offenses and their recidivism. And during the conduct of investigative (search) actions – the possibility of effective establishment of psychological contact, the use of appropriate tactical techniques. In order to construct an effective forensic characteristic, elements must be identified that have a clear investigative focus and can help determine further directions of the investigation. Therefore, it is indisputable to distinguish in the structure of forensic characteristics of crimes such component as the person of the offender. By identifying its characteristic features, it becomes possible to build versions at the initial stage of the investigation, to use certain tactical techniques in the course of procedural actions. A forensic investigation of an individual consists of establishing forensically relevant information about the offender and other participants in the investigation process. Investigation of the identity of the offender as an element of forensic characteristics, allows to accumulate in the portrait of the likely offender his characteristic features. Creating a forensic portrait is important enough for the whole investigation process. In any case, it allows you to put forward certain versions and search for the person who disappeared from the scene, as well as the possibility of qualitative procedural actions.
