The main aspects characterizing the crime disclosure concept

The relevance is due to a comprehensive study of the meanings of the criminal procedural, forensic and op-erational-investigative concepts of crime disclosure. The purpose of work is to analyze the above concepts and establish their significance for solving the problems of criminal justice. Realization of the goal is achieved by us-ing the laws of dialectics, formal logic and the use of general scientific and private scientific research methods. We explore the genesis of the origin of these concepts, their characteristic features, relationship of concepts both among themselves and with the concept of crime investigation. We define and study the criminal procedural concept of the crime disclosure in relation to the concept of its investigation. We conclude that in this case the contents of these concepts coincide, and the concept of crime disclosure loses its scientific significance. The fo-rensic concept of crime disclosure is of great scientific, methodological and practical importance for the crimes investigation. We consider it as the initial stage of the investigation, without which it is impossible to achieve its ultimate goal. We study the operational-investigative concept of crime disclosure, which is legally fixed as one of the main tasks of Operational-Investigative Activity. We study the main features of crime disclosure concept, ways to increase its effectiveness are identified. We conclude that the crime disclosure concept is a forensic and operational-investigative category that has great scientific, methodological and practical significance for solving the problems of criminal proceedings.
