EXAMINE THE DISMEMBERED CORPSE AND THE LOCATION (S) OF THE CORPSE

It's critical to perform a preliminary inquiry if a dismembered body is discovered. The first stage of a murder inquiry is primarily concerned with determining whether the murder was premeditated or unintentional. The first situation does not necessitate the use of a different research technique; however, the second situation does necessitate the use of a separate investigation methodology in this regard. The initial stage of the murder investigation requires the implementation of preliminary investigative actions and operational-search measures. In this case, the concept of initial investigative actions is a forensic concept, while urgent investigative actions are both forensic and criminal-procedural concepts. These two concepts - initial and urgent - can be both proportional and incompatible [1, p. 16]. Article 14 of the Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated December 25, 2012 "On operational search activities" provides for 16 types of operational search activities.
