The defense of personal dignity and rights of the victim is envisaged in many universal and regional international law acts. All these international law acts and agreements partially or entirely are devoted to the solution of the problem of defense of those people who became the victim of crimes not only of habitual criminals, but also of the lawbreaking state officials vested with authorities to implement law and justice.All these international law acts contain the imperative directives for national legislation and legal practice in the sphere of defense of the human integrity, rights and lawful interests of those persons, who suffered moral, physical, physiological and material injury from criminals.An opinion of the victim must be considered and trustfully examined in all stages of criminal justice from the position of international and national legislation, because the main function of criminal justice is and should remain the paramount defense of the victim’s needs and lawful interests.
