ARREST AND DETENTION IN MISDEMEANOR PROCEEDINGS

Autor u ovom radu analizira dvije mjere za osiguranje nazočnosti okrivljenika u prekršajnom postupku i to mjeru uhićenja i mjeru zadržavanja. Uhićenje i zadržavanje spadaju u jedne od najtežih mjera zadiranja u temeljna ljudska prava i slobode stoga je jako bitno da njihova primjena bude na zakonu osnovana i u praksi neizbježna radi uspješnog vođenja prekršajnog postupka. Izricanju navedenih mjera mora se pristupati sukladno propisanim pravilima i poštujući načela razmjernosti i supsidijarnosti kako bi se s jedne strane omogućilo efikasno vođenje prekršajnog postupka i s druge strane građanima osigurala njihova temeljna ljudska prava i slobode zagarantirane Ustavom Republike Hrvatske, Općom deklaracijom o ljudskim pravima, Europskom konvencijom za zaštitu ljudskih prava i temeljnih sloboda te drugim važnim propisima.In this paper the author analyzes two measures for ensuring the presence of the defendant in the misdemeanor proceedings, namely the measure of arrest and the detention measure. Arrest and detention fall into one of the most difficult measures of embezzlement in fundamental human rights and freedoms, therefore, it is essential that their application be law-set and in practice inevitable in order to successfully prosecute misdemeanor offenders. The application of these measures must be made in accordance with the prescribed rules and respecting the principles of proportionality and subsidiarity in order to enable efficient conduct of misdemeanor proceedings on the one hand and to provide citizens with their fundamental human rights and freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution of the Republic of Croatia, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, The European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and other important regulations
