Day of the Investigative Authorities of the Russian Federation
The professionalism of investigators is a guarantor for citizens of the Russian Federation of respecting their rights and maintaining the rule of law in the country. Every year on April 6, all investigators in Russia celebrate their professional holiday - the Day of the Investigative Authorities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It's interesting to note that for a long time Russia did not have a cohesive investigative apparatus, and all crimes were dealt with by the police. However, since its employees were not adequately trained, the quality of their work left much to be desired.
In 1860, the authorities established a separate position - judicial investigators. It was they who were tasked with dealing with more “complex” and complicated crimes, while the police continued to fight crime, but less complex ones; all the “dirty” work also went to them. Since then, the investigative apparatus in Russia has undergone many changes and transformations. Under Soviet rule, its employees were transferred to the subordination of the Ministry of Justice; after some time, the apparatus “fell into the hands” of the prosecutor’s office.
In the mid-20th century, the investigative authorities of the police were abolished, and now only employees of the prosecutor's office conducted inquiries. Soon such a system was recognized as ineffective, and on April 6, 1963, investigative practice returned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Over time, an organized investigative apparatus was formed in Russia, which made it possible to increase efficiency in the fight against crime, and a structured system of investigative units was developed. As a result, the number of crimes uncovered has increased significantly.
The Day of Investigative Authorities in Russia is not official, however, despite this, it is on April 6 that awards are given to particularly distinguished employees state awards, and letters of gratitude.

Events of April 6
Pas de Calais is a strait between Europe and Great Britain. It is believed to be the narrowest part of the English Channel. According to the results of the inspection, which took place at the end of the twentieth century, the magnitude of the earthquake was more than six points on the Richter scale. The source of the disaster was located at a depth of twenty kilometers under the bottom, and its epicenter was at the very bottom.
As a result of the devastating natural disaster, several large cities were damaged. All court hearings in London were interrupted. In addition, several cultural and historical structures were damaged, and entire layers of chalk rocks on the banks went into the water. The resulting tsunami claimed more than one hundred and twenty lives and sank three dozen large ships.
After the victory of the Russian army over the French during the campaign across Europe, on March 30, 1814, Paris was transferred to them by the allies. There was a real threat that Russian troops could burn down Paris in revenge for Moscow. Fearing such radical measures, the marshals of France turned to Napoleon Bonaparte, and after some deliberation he decided to leave the throne.
This happened on April 6, 1814. The text of the renunciation contained the following lines: “There is no such personal sacrifice that I would not sacrifice in the interests of France.”
It is known that after his resignation Bonaparte was sent to Elba. However, a year later in 1815, he again took the French throne; his companions carried him into the hall literally in their arms. At that time, an anti-French coalition was being organized, in which many European countries became participants.
Soon she opposed the Napoleonic empire, as a result of which the emperor's army suffered a crushing and final defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. In the summer of 1815, Napoleon again abdicated the throne, and he spent the last years of his life in the lands of St. Helena under the supervision of the British.
The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games of modern times took place at the Marble Stadium in the presence of eighty thousand people. With this decree, George the First (King of Greece) actually annulled Theodosius’ ban on holding such games as a relic of pagan times.
Only male athletes took part in the first Olympic Games; there were just over 300 of them. The Russian team did not participate in the competition due to lack of funds. However, one of the Russian representatives did apply to participate in the games, but soon changed his mind and took it back.
