The device itself cannot detect false answers. It is a tactical forensic tool that is used in pretrial proceedings as a means of elimination or as a guideline for detecting and collecting the other evidence which may serve as a basis of a court decision. In this paper, besides the most important facts about a polygraph, it has been taken a quick look on the questions of a legal resolution of the new Criminal Procedure Code from 2011 and the Police Act from 2005.
