METHOD OF COMMITMENT OF CRIMINAL OFFENSE AS INDICATION

By undertaking various criminal activities, most of the perpetrators leave traces behind themselves which can be manifested according to the object of the attack, place, time, tools and actions undertaken in the preparatory phase, during the commission of the crime and after it. If it is proven that there are specific circumstances that point to the mentioned elements, it is highly possible that they will result in the basis of suspicion of the combination of the committed acts, namely the circumstances that they were committed by the same person, or the same group. In the operational work, it starts with the known perpetrators who are included in the criminal records precisely because of the appearance of such features in the commission of criminal acts, while in fact they were able to commit the new criminal act as well. Also, the surprise capture of the perpetrator in the act, i.e. his discovery in another way, is the basis for his involvement in other unrelated criminal offenses which were committed in the same way as for the offense for which he is deprived of his liberty . In the daily operational work, the official authorized persons discover a whole range of operational information with an indicative character - informal indicative evidence which usually serves as a guide of its own kind in the further work. Indices or grounds of suspicion (indicia - sign) - the grounds of suspicion are facts and circumstances which more or less indicate the existence of a criminal offense and the close or distant connection of the offenses with any person who directly committed, or is indirectly related to the work. Those in criminal processing are a necessary guide, based on which it can be concluded with greater or lesser certainty that it is about the specific criminal offense and that the specific person could be the perpetrator of it or the offense other criminal. In addition, the indices combined with the others, with the direct evidence complete the argumentative material, therefore it is no coincidence that the criminal police relies a large part of its activities precisely on the collection of operative information .
