Evidence admissibility in criminal proceedings and criminal liability for violations of the evidence obtainment procedure

Abstract

One of the main criminal proceedings issues appears to be the institution of evidence, its sources and the procedure of dealing with them. It is quite incompletely, contradictory and imperfectly presented in Art. 84, Art. 93 and others of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine (hereinafter referred to as the CPC of Ukraine) [9]. At the same time, the application of the criminal liability for violations during the evidence obtainment procedure will assist in solving the fundamental problems of evidence admissibility into the stated procedure.
