Abstract

The article substantiates the thesis that during the investigation of criminal
offenses related to the interference in the activities of representatives of state
authorities, the victim becomes the starting point with which most of the
circumstances to be ascertained during the investigation are connected because it
is during his performance of his functional duties and the criminal intent aimed at
obstructing the legal activity of the victim is realized. It was found that in those
criminal proceedings where the criminal actions of the criminal did not cause
moral, physical, or property damage, the representative of the state authority,
whose professional activity became the object of illegal encroachment, as the
victim, is not involved in the proceedings, but remains in the status a witness
Taking into account the specifics of the criminal offenses of the studied group, it
was found that the victims of the studied criminal crimes are most often: police
officers. Moreover, the vast majority of the victims are male persons who have a
higher education, and are older than 22 years but have little professional
experience. Mostly, the victims are not familiar with the suspects, and their
professional activities are encroached upon during the direct performance of
public order duties, procedural or executive actions, and judicial review of
administrative and civil cases.
