International legal standards for the conduct of criminal prosecution and its implementation in the legislation of the Russian Federation and the Federal Republic of Germany

Abstract

Through the method of reviewing scientific documentation, the objective of the study is to determine international legal standards for the implementation of criminal prosecution and its implementation in legislation in Russia and Germany. International standards in the field of criminal procedure are analyzed, from which the category "international standards of criminal prosecution" has been developed. To form a unified concept for the implementation of criminal prosecution and create an effective mechanism to protect the rights of the accused, the need for further investigation of international standards is argued. Within the framework of this investigation, an attempt was made to draw attention to the issues of the regulation of the implementation of criminal prosecution in international documents, as well as the national legislation of the Russian Federation and the Federal Republic of Germany. It is concluded that international standards for the application of criminal prosecution play an important role in consolidating the rule of law and improving criminal procedure legislation, as they contribute to the formation of a unified concept of criminal prosecution and set the permissible limits for restricting the rights of the accused.
