Abstract
The current standard of criminal procedural law of Georgia, along with the danger of illegally copying information obtained from electronic means of communication, envisages collecting such information in the hands of a professionally interested body, which is naturally a big challenge for criminal procedural law. The reason for this is the important fact that the information obtained by the investigation in this way is used as electronic evidence during the substantive consideration of the case in court.
Accordingly, the case concerns information that the court must rely on in making a decision “beyond a reasonable doubt standard”. Thus, when deciding the fate of the accused, it is especially important that there are no doubts regarding the legality, truthfulness and inviolability of such evidence. The above-mentioned is particularly noteworthy in the circumstances when the above-mentioned approach, according to European human rights jurisprudence, is incompatible with the right to respect for private life protected by Article 8 of the European Convention.
