Актуальность определяется предстоящей ратификацией Конвенции и необходимостью приведения национального уголовного закона в соответствие с ее требованиями. Цель работы состоит в выявлении пробелов действующей редакции статьи 116 Уголовного кодекса и в разработке путей их устранения на основе сопоставления конвенционных обязательств с материалами конкретного уголовного дела. Методологическую основу составили формально-юридический, сравнительно-правовой, системный и криминологический методы, анализ судебной практики и правовое моделирование. Установлено, что национальная норма криминализирует преимущественно акт изъятия и незаконные сделки, тогда как конвенционный стандарт требует ответственности за вербовку, предложение, посредничество, транспортировку, хранение и финансирование незаконного оборота органов. Материалы судебной практики показали, что доноры, действовавшие под влиянием крайней нужды и обмана, осуждаются наравне с организаторами. Предложены новая редакция статьи 116, самостоятельные составы вербовки, посредничества и подлога документов, примечание об иммунитете донора-жертвы, а также административная ответственность юридических лиц. Выводы применимы в законотворческой и правоприменительной деятельности.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article addresses the implementation of the Council of Europe Convention against Trafficking in Human Organs into the criminal legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Its relevance follows from the forthcoming ratification of the Convention and the need to align national criminal law with its requirements. The purpose is to identify the gaps in the current wording of Article 116 of the Criminal Code and to develop ways of eliminating them by comparing the conventional obligations with the materials of a specific criminal case. The methodological basis comprises formal-legal, comparative-legal, systemic and criminological methods, analysis of judicial practice and legal modelling. It is established that the national provision criminalises mainly the act of removal and unlawful transactions, whereas the conventional standard requires liability for recruitment, offering, mediation, transportation, storage and financing of illicit organ trafficking. Judicial materials show that donors acting under extreme need and deception are convicted on an equal footing with the organisers. A new wording of Article 116, separate offences of recruitment, mediation and document forgery, a note on donor-victim immunity, and administrative liability of legal persons are proposed. The conclusions are applicable in law-making and law enforcement.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>торговля человеческими органами</kwd><kwd>незаконная трансплантация</kwd><kwd>имплементация международного договора</kwd><kwd>криминализация</kwd><kwd>вербовка доноров</kwd><kwd>посредничество</kwd><kwd>иммунитет донора-жертвы</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>trafficking in human organs</kwd><kwd>illegal transplantation</kwd><kwd>treaty implementation</kwd><kwd>criminalisation</kwd><kwd>recruitment of donors</kwd><kwd>mediation</kwd><kwd>donor-victim immunity</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">WHO Guiding Principles on Human Cell, Tissue and Organ Transplantation.
