Investigative measures in criminal proceedings

However, this does not affect the investigation activities if the investigating officers know how to flexibly and skillfully use those measures in each specific situation.

3- To carry out investigative measures in criminal proceedings, investigators must not only rely on legal provisions but also constantly improve their professional skills. The law on investigative measures only stipulates the order and procedures for implementation, while the implementation tactics in each condition, circumstance, and specific case depend on the methods and experience of each investigator. This is not taught in training schools or prescribed in legal documents but must be accumulated by investigators through practical activities.

4- Entering the 21st century, our country has achieved many important achievements in the process of national renewal. Along with the expansion of peaceful, cooperative and friendly relations with countries around the world, our country's economy has continuously developed. Along with that is the cultural and social exchange with countries in the region and around the world. Besides the achievements, society has seen many negative aspects. Prominent are dangerous crimes, gangs of thugs, gangster-like behavior, transnational crimes, human trafficking, money laundering... criminal groups using high technology to serve their dark purposes. This is a great challenge for those working in law enforcement in general and investigation work in particular. To effectively fight against crime, first of all, there must be a complete legal system in that field. Next, it is necessary to focus on investing in the human factor. We must train a source of investigative staff with full heart, vision and talent to be able to deal with all plots and tricks of bad guys.

5- To improve the effectiveness of investigation activities, it is necessary to have a system of comprehensive and synchronous solutions. In particular, important solutions are to perfect the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code on investigation in general, investigation measures in particular, measures to improve the quality of investigation activities such as improving the qualifications and capacity of investigators. Perfecting the organization and staffing of investigation agencies, increasing technical equipment for investigation agencies, strengthening the relationship between relevant agencies in criminal case investigation, etc.
