Gulbahor Abduqahhorovna Tursunalieva , Doctoral Researcher at the Academy of Law Enforcement of Republic UzbekistanAbstract
This article provides a comprehensive legal and scholarly analysis of the formation and evolution of the institution of state liability for damage caused by unlawful acts of public authorities, with particular emphasis on investigative bodies. The study examines the place of tort liability within the system of civil law and reveals its theoretical and practical significance as a mechanism for the protection of violated rights. A comparative legal analysis is conducted with reference to the legal systems of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Russia, focusing on the historical development of non-contractual liability of the state. Special attention is paid to the legal foundations governing compensation for damage caused by public authorities in the territory of Uzbekistan from the medieval period to the present day. The article analyzes constitutional and civil law guarantees of state compensation under the current legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan and substantiates the special conditions for imposing such liability. The study aims to demonstrate the crucial role of state liability in restoring violated rights and lawful interests of individuals and legal entities.
