Abstract:
The article examines the peculiarities of the legal status of persons who voluntarily report corruption offences (whistleblowers, complainants). The authors introduce the reader to the definitions of the concept of ‘whistleblower’ that currently exist in legislation and legal doctrine, consider the types of such whistleblowers, characterize their legal status based on the norms of various branches of law, and consider some types of protection measures applied to this category of persons.
