ABSTRACT. The article is devoted to highlighting the current problems of our time related to international and organized crime in the field of illegal transplantation of human anatomical materials and the procedure for extradition of persons who commit crimes of this category. The problem of the application of Ukrainian and international legislation during the pre-trial investigation of this category of crimes and extradition, respectively, was studied. It has been proven that until now, the issue of ways to solve problematic issues related to the translation of necessary procedural documents within the framework of international cooperation, including extradition, investigative (search) actions and other procedural actions, has not yet been fully resolved at the legislative level, especially during evidentiary activities regarding criminal groups engaged in illegal transplantation of human anatomical materials. The authors proposed for making relevant changes to the Code of Criminal Procedure of Ukraine, the Code of Criminal Procedure of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine (hereinafter referred to as the Law) «On the application of transplantation of anatomical materials to humans».

According to the authors, there is a need to establish a separate independent body that will translate documents that are a state secret of Ukraine. And also in the development of the appropriate procedure for the application of the provisions of the legislation of Ukraine and international legal acts regarding the resolution of the issues of bringing to criminal responsibility criminals from the aggressor country of the Russian Federation who commit criminal offenses of various categories, including in the field of illegal transplantation of human anatomical materials.

Keywords: extradition, extradition relations, pretrial investigation bodies, translator, illegal transplantation, trade in human anatomical materials, donor, recipient, organized crime.
