The article highlights the factors that led to a major restriction of the investigator’s procedural independence as a result of a sharp growth in the number of procedural-administrative and procedural-control powers held by the chief of the investigative body.

One of these reasons is explained by the author’s efforts to address the conse-quences from the well-known crisis of law enforcement agencies in the 1990s, which resulted in a decline in the quality of preliminary investigation. The second justifica-tion is connected by the author to the Soviet preliminary investigation’s administra-tiveization and the assignment of traditional jurisdictional (judicial-investigative) powers to the executive authorities.

As a result, it is determined that the procedural independence of the investigator is merely another doctrinal illusion at the moment. It should be noted that the investi-gator’s discretionary powers are actually limited to a minimum, and their potential use depends on the procedural omnipotence of the chief of the investigative body.

By exploring these alternative strategies, this study aims to stimulate a broader discussion on penal policy reform and encourage the adoption of more holistic and effective approaches to addressing hate crimes.
