Summary: | In this article, the author has identified, analyzed and explained the most important problems that arise in proving and prosecuting sport-related offenses. In addition, it has been explained that the offenses committed in the field of sport and sport-related activities represent, by their characteristics, a special type of offenses, which is directly reflected in the existence of specificities when proving disciplinary breaches, misdemeanors and relevant criminal offenses, as compared to proving other offenses committed by individuals or legal entities in everyday life. It has been illustrated, as an extremely negative example, that the practice of detection and prosecution authorities in the field of criminal and judicial prosecution of offenses pertaining to doping in sport is still missing in Republic of Serbia.
The concluding part of the paper argues that the presented, but also potential, most probably numerous and complex problems, that may arise when proving the offenses committed in the field of sport and when proving the sport-related offenses, must not stand as an argument for refraining from the application and further improvement of the usage of the mechanism of penal protection of sport.
