Criminal Procedural Legislation of Bih as a Normative Assumption of Efficiency of Proceedings in Criminal Cases
Abstract: Bosnia and Herzegovina is one of the few European countries that have recently adopted their new, constitution and procedural laws that are used to regulate the criminal proceedings in a fundamentally different way. The tendencies of contemporary science of criminal procedural law and resolutions of contemporary comparative criminal procedural legislation in the terms of creating the normative basis for increasing the efficiency of the criminal proceedings have been placed, quite justifiably, in the criminal procedural legislation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Within a number of measures taken with the aim of increasing efficiency of criminal proceedings, a special case belongs to the simplified forms of procedure in criminal cases. In that context, a systematic reform of the criminal procedural legislation was executed,
both in Bosnia and Herzegovina and in its entities and the Brcko District BiH, which has opened a completely new approach to criminal proceedings, in which the emphasis is not only on enhancing the protection of basic human rights and freedom, but also on the efficiency of the procedure.
Key words: efficiency of criminal proceedings, the simplified forms of procedure in criminal cases, indictments, court decisions.
Krivičnoprocesno zakonodavstvo BiH kao normativna pretpostavka efikasnosti postupanja u krivičnim stvarima
Rezime: Bosna i Hercegovina spada u red svega nekoliko evropskih država koje su u zadnje vrijeme donijele svoje nove, sistemske procesne zakone kojima je na bitno drugačiji način uređen krivični postupak. Tendencije savremene nauke krivičnog procesnog prava i rješenja savremenog komparativnog krivičnog procesnog zakonodavstva po pitanju stvaranja normativne osnove za povećanje efikasnosti krivičnog postupka, našli su, sasvim opravdano, svoje mjesto i u krivičnoprocesnom zakonodavstvu Bosne i Hercegovine. U okviru brojnih mjera koje se preduzimaju s ciljem povećanja efikasnosti krivičnog postupka posebno mjesto pripada upravo pojednostavljenim formama postupanja u krivičnim stvarima. U tom kontekstu, izvršena je sistemska reforma krivičnog procesnog zakonodavstva, kako na nivou Bosne i Hercegovine, tako i u njenim entitetima i Brčko Distriktu BiH koja je otvorila potpuno novi pristup krivičnom postupku, u kome se akcenat stavlja ne samo na pojačavanje zaštite osnovnih ljudskih prava i sloboda, nego i na efikasnost samog postupka.
Ključne riječi: efikasnost krivičnog postupka, pojednostavljene forme postupanja u krivičnim stvarima, optužnice, sudske odluke.
