The prosecutor's offices of the region are taking measures aimed at strengthening legality and law and order

In the current year, the region's prosecutor's offices, in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies, are taking measures aimed at strengthening legality and law and order, ensuring public safety and discipline.

 Particular attention is paid to the protection of citizens' social rights and interests, including minors, supervision of the enforcement of legislation on public order, prevention of youth involvement in illegal mass events and other destructive actions, crime prevention and other offenses, the fight against corruption and economic crime, adherence to legality in the conduct of inquiries and preliminary investigations, and the consideration of cases in courts.

At the initiative of prosecutors, issues of strengthening law and order have been repeatedly considered at meetings of the regional executive committee and local government bodies.

At the meetings of the coordination council for combating crime and corruption in the Vitebsk region, issues of improving the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies in preventing, detecting, and suppressing high-tech crimes, other crimes committed using bank payment card details, computer systems, and the Internet, as well as issues of the effectiveness of crime prevention entities in preventing deaths from fires and other external factors, were discussed.

Problematic issues of supervisory activities were considered at operational meetings with the regional prosecutor and his deputies.

Prosecutors also regularly informed representative and executive authorities about the state of legality in the regions.

The organizational and practical measures taken have made it possible to maintain a positive trend towards a decrease in most registered crimes, including in the areas of activity of criminal investigation.

Over the past 5 months of the current year, there has been a decrease in intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm, including with a fatal outcome, robberies, and thefts. The number of crimes has decreased,

committed by minors and with their complicity, by persons with a criminal record, by a group of persons, as well as while intoxicated.

Work in this direction will be continued.
