The Situation of Combating Crimes Committed Using Information Technology in Andijan Region Was Studied

Employees of the Law Enforcement Academy, together with representatives of the Prosecutor General's Office's Department for Supervision over the Implementation of Legislation in Internal Affairs Bodies, conducted a study on the processing, investigation, and detection of crime reports related to offenses committed using information technology in the internal affairs bodies of Andijan region. The study also assessed the legality of these processes and the state of prosecutorial supervision in this area.

The examination was carried out by visiting district police departments in the region, where investigators directly reviewed pre-investigation materials, criminal cases, and other relevant documents related to this category of crimes. Additionally, discussions were held with some victims of new types of cybercrime.

Violations of the law identified during the study were addressed at the initiative of the inspection team, and systemic errors and deficiencies that could not be immediately corrected were documented and summarized.

Furthermore, experts from the Academy’s Digital Forensics Research Institute provided operational and investigative officers with practical and theoretical recommendations on combating crimes in the field of information technology, handling digital evidence, and improving skills in solving such crimes.

As a result of the study, a list of methods, conditions, and categories of crimes committed using information technology was compiled. The findings were systematized to develop proposals for the early prevention of potential cybercrimes in the future.
