Assessing the Scope of Legal Immunity in Modern Legal Science: The Need for Questioning Under Ukrainian Law

Abstract

Everyone is born equal and expects to be treated similarly before the law in cases involving criminal activity and other obligations. It is problematic to have some people immune to legal consequences because they enjoyed special treatment in the eyes of the legislation meant to protect them. The issue we must bring up is crucial, as there is always the need to conduct a thorough investigation into the commission of crimes to secure justice. However, the tendency is that as far as immunity is on the individual concerned, this would frustrate the prosecution process. In this vein, it was proposed that this study investigate how immunity relates to today's state of the law. We will look at an analytical approach to determine if immunity's status has changed due to the rise of modern legal science. The paper overviews the legal framework adopted in Ukraine concerning immunity given to certain public servants.

Respecting and protecting all parties have always been the objective of every proceeding, aiming to achieve justice at every trial stage.…”

War crimes and ensuring Ukraine's national security through the prism of Russia's armed aggression

“…Starting from this time, protecting human rights is not a purely internal competence of states. It has gained international significance, embodied in the idea of creating a new international law and order, the basis of which is the respect for fundamental rights and freedoms (Ablamskyi et al 2020;Sokurenko et al 2023). Today, security plays an important role for Ukrainian society, as the most destructive events are taking place, resulting from the military conflict in the center of Europe after the end of World War II.…”
