Abstract

The article analyzes the problems of maintaining the presumption of innocence in media reports and information about crimes. It is noted that the media currently does not maintain a growth trend in the dissemination of news and information about crimes. It is said that the journalistic investigation and the presumption of innocence contradict each other in content. It is concluded that for violating the requirements of the presumption of innocence, liability is provided for the investigator, prosecutor, or court, but the responsibility for a journalist is not clearly defined by law.
