Description In the presentation I discussed the matter of the role of forensic psychology in ensuring an effective investigation of criminal offences. In the introductory part, I aimed to present some of the relevant knowledge regarding the scientific field of forensic psychology. Mainly I focused on the role of the personality of the perpetrator, or properly said the suspect or the accused, in investigating the crimes of which he is suspected and on the suitable ways (or we can say criminalistic tactics and methods) of leading an interrogation. In this presentation I also dealt with the concept of the positive obligations of the State, whose existence is implied in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and deduced from the European Convention on Human Rights. In this part I aimed to clarify this concept to audience. Then I also briefly presented the partial criteria of leading an effective investigation deduced from the articles of the Convention by the ECtHR case-law. The conclusions made in the article were introduced in the presentation that I delivered at the Congress on 9th September (Vilnius, 2022).
