The article examines the formation of the information service of the criminal investigation authorities in Siberia in the 1920s. The article analyzes the activities of the criminal investigation department to obtain operational information from the criminal environment in conditions of a sharp increase in crime. The authors come to the conclusion that the organization of operational investigative work was difficult, with an acute shortage of funding. The article emphasizes that the work of the information service of the criminal investigation authorities was well staged in the cities. Insufficient operational and agent capabilities in rural Siberia have led to the low effectiveness of the fight against crime in rural areas. In general, the activities of informants of the criminal investigation department increased the effectiveness of the fight against crime. During the period under study, the criminal investigation information service became an important part of the law enforcement system of the Soviet state. |
