LEGAL ASPECTS OF 210 ARTICLE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION CRIMINAL CODE EFFICIENT APPLICATION

Abstract

Illegal activity of criminal communities is a part of the organized criminal activity and one of the most dangerous kinds of criminality. Successful investigation of this activity is the major direction of counteraction of the organized crime as a whole. The enacted Criminal Code of the Russian Federation unprecedentedly introduced the legal norms (items 35 and 210 of the RF Criminal Code) providing criminal responsibility for organizing, managing and participating in a criminal community (criminal organization). Unfortunately the absence of accurate formulations both in earlier editions of the law and in the present one leads to complexity while qualifying the organization of a criminal community (criminal organization). This paper deals with the efficiency of 35 and 210 articles application.
