<jats:p>Relevance of the topic of research. For a long time, the criminal procedural legislation of our country was based on the monopoly of the state on the implementation of prosecutorial activity, which had individual exceptions to the general rule. The exceptions included, in particular, cases initiated on the basis of the victim's complaint and subject to termination on the basis of his reconciliation with the accused. Only within these limits was private prosecution allowed. At the same time, the victim's right to influence the commencement and termination of proceedings was limited to filing a complaint or refusal to file a complaint. The entire course of the proceedings depended to a greater or lesser extent on the discretion of the public prosecutor (procurator). The Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Armenia, adopted on June 30, 2021, envisages a new criminal procedural institute of the Republic of Armenia - proceedings on private accusation. The mentioned institute in the domestic legal system has just entered the applied sphere, which means that a number of factors may arise in practical work, discussion of some of them may contribute to the search for accurate solutions, which determines the relevance of the topic. Aim and objectives of the research. The main purpose of the research article is to comprehensively study the theoretical and practical problems of private prosecution in the RA criminal proceedings, to develop proposals for the improvement of the criminal procedural legislation and the practice of its application. Keywords: private prosecution; public prosecution; public prosecutor; prosecutor; victim.</jats:p>
