Abstract
The article analyzes the problem of the activities of the prosecutor’s office in countering extremism. To identify the problem associated with the insufficiency of legal regulation, the following algorithm was used: analysis of the provisions of sectoral legislation to identify the assigned powers of the prosecutor; additionally analyzed judicial and administrative practices in cases related to extremism; used a comparison method, including the assigned powers of other law enforcement agencies. The author substantiates the need to improve legal regulation, since prosecutors today, both within the framework of supervisory powers and nonsupervisory activities, ensure legality in the mentioned area. Based on the conducted research, the author concludes that in domestic legislation, the prosecutor’s offices, which are currently entrusted with the main front of work, are not properly enshrined in legislation as subjects of countering extremism, which raises law enforcement issues in practice. It is proved that due to the ambiguous law enforcement and judicial interpretation, it is necessary to develop common approaches to the interpretation of legislation, to identify and record extremist offenses.
