Vladimir Putin congratulated the Investigative Committee of Russia on its 10th anniversary. The President thanked the investigators for their work and expressed hope for their further successful activities in the suppression of crimes.
The activities of the Investigative Committee, according to Putin, must be honest and responsible so that the investigation of cases leads to fair sentences. That is why this department was separated from the prosecutor's office and is an independent authority.
Designated innovations created favorable conditions for effective fight against corruption, also in superior executive and legislative bodies, which was problematic before due to dependance of the investigative establishment chief assignment with the approval of above mentioned government bodies, and subordination to these bodies.
Currently, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation is not included into any structure of governmental authorities, or any branch of governmental authorities. Fundamentally, investigative power implemented by the Committee is the continuation of presidential power, and can be treated as checks and balances in the system of separation of powers.
