The search protocol. How is the search conducted?

A search is a procedural action,carried out by employees of law enforcement bodies, investigative bodies, on the territory of organizations and apartments of persons suspected of committing a crime. The search can not be spontaneous or non-systematic, therefore, during the commission of an action, a search protocol is always kept.

The first part of the protocol

Protocol, if you carefully analyze it,can be divided into several parts. The first of them can, by analogy with the structure of business letters, be called a "hat". The name of the settlement in which the procedure is made is indicated in the upper left corner. The search protocol must necessarily contain such a column as the date. After the city and the date, the time of the beginning and completion of the search must be marked. Such detailing is mandatory. Why? The person or employees of the organization where the search was conducted can theoretically state that they were not at home that day, for example. The presence of such a clear concretization of the time interval for the procedure will limit as much as possible all possible variations for disputes.

In the text it is desirable to clearly write on time that the search in a particular room was conducted, say, from 15:10 to 15:17, in the next room - from 15:20 to 15:30. That is, the whole process of conducting investigative actions should be clearly recorded in the protocol.

What is the personal search protocol?

In order to investigate crimes, the time fromtime there is a need to conduct a personal search of a person. He's a little different from looking for things in the apartment. The structure of the protocol is the same, but there are some differences. The fact is that only individual employees with special knowledge have the right to search a person. The document must include information about the person who carried out the search (name, position). In addition, all information about special technical means that will be involved in each specific case (for example, a metal detector) is fully displayed.
