| Summary: | Elaborate mechanisms of a criminal activity, a high level of secrecy, a hierarchical structure and diversification of tasks among the members of the organized criminal group, make it a complex phenomenon. Due to its specificity, uncovering the crimes and perpetrators of the organized crime requires the use of special methods and techniques. One of them is a special evidentiary action, the deployment of an undercover investigator, which is used to obtain evidence and information necessary for uncovering criminal acts, as well as the organized criminal groups. The purpose of this paper is to present the specific characteristics of this special evidentiary action in certain countries of the European continental legal system, where the covered questions are, when, in what way, and under what conditions a certain person can act as an undercover investigator.
