Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the constitutional principle of the presumption of innocence in the criminal procedure of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The author substantiates the relevance of the topic by pointing out the lack of scholarly research and the frequent violations of this principle by law enforcement agencies and courts. The aim of the study is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the essence, content, and importance of the presumption of innocence as a cornerstone of criminal justice in a democratic state. The research applies general scientific methods (dialectical, analysis and synthesis, generalization) as well as special legal methods (comparative legal, system-structural, formal-logical). The author emphasizes that compliance with the principles of criminal procedure, including the presumption of innocence, is imperative and serves as a guarantee of fairness and legality in criminal proceedings.
