Summary: | The laws on criminal procedure in Bosnia and Herzegovina provide for special investigative action as specific measures that temporarily limit personal human rights and freedoms because of the need to combat complex forms of crime. If the historical component in their implementation in the national legal system and their development within this framework is emphasised, the foundations on which those actions rest can withstand contemporary controls and criticism. Deviation from solutions that one could say are better or more frequent makes them more difficult to understand and accept but does not diminish their legitimacy. The developmental path in Bosnia and Herzegovina today contains bolder actions in the sense of widening the number of special or hidden forms of investigation as well as the liberalisation of conditions for their application. |
