The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (ICRF; Russian: Следственный комитет Российской Федерации) has since January 2011 been the main federal investigating authority in Russia. Its name (Sledstvennyi komitet) is usually abbreviated to SKR (Russian: СКР). The agency replaced the Russian prosecutor general's Investigative Committee and operates as Russia's anti-corruption agency. It is answerable to the president of Russia and has statutory responsibility for inspecting the police forces, combating police corruption and police misconduct and is responsible for conducting investigations into local authorities and federal governmental bodies.
On January 21, 2011, President Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree appointing Alexander Bastrykin, then the acting chair of the prosecutor general's Investigative Committee, as Sledkom's chairperson.
In 2012 President Medvedev began to discuss the possibility of creating a Federal Anti-Corruption Bureau under Sledkom, as part of the campaign against corruption and to combat corruption in the Russian police.
Number of employees
The number of agents in the Investigative Committee (except the military investigative agents) is 19,156 employees, and from January 1, 2012, need to be 21,156 employees. The number of the Military Investigators is now 2,034 employees.
According to the 2012 Law on Amendments to some Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation in connection with improving the structure of Preliminary Investigation, it will expand to 60,000 staff, largely by taking over most of the investigators of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Federal Drug Control Service.
