Summary

The proposals for the establishment of mobile canine groups of interregional territorial bodies of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine on criminal penalties implementation are highlighted in the article. The tasks to be solved by the mobile canine group and the peculiarities of the organization of its activity are formulated.

The analysis of recent research suggests that due to the existing specifics of the interregional territorial bodies of the Ministry of Justice on criminal penalties implementation, improving the forms and methods of performing tasks would be able to allow more efficient use of available forces and resources. The performance of security and defense agencies and government agencies shows a high efficiency of using canine couples, and using several couples in a group makes it virtually impossible to attempt illicit trafficking in narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors.

Mobile dog group is created for:

  • search and inspection of convicts, staff and citizens who are on the territory of penal institutions, contracted facilities;
  • search and detection of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors during attempts in order to transfer them to the penal institution and pre-trial detention center;
  • conducting scheduled and unscheduled searches in order to combat illicit trafficking in narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors;
  • carrying out an in-depth inspection of vehicles, cargo and other property with the use of special dogs;
  • participating in operative-search and preventive measures in order to counteract illicit trafficking in narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors.

Key words: mobile canine group, junior inspectors – dog trainers, service dogs, penal institution, pre-trial detention center.
