Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se pravom na pristup odvjetniku kao jednim od temeljnih ljudskih prava i ključnih elemenata zaštite prava uhićenika u kaznenom postupku. Analizirano je kako je to pravo uređeno u hrvatskom zakonodavstvu i međunarodnom pravu, uz poseban osvrt na praksu Europskog suda za ljudska prava (ESLJP) i Ustavnog suda Republike Hrvatske. Prikazana je važnost stručne pravne pomoći branitelja uhićenim osobama radi osiguranja pravičnog kaznenog postupka i očuvanja jednakosti oružja između obrane i optužbe. Analizom nekoliko presuda prikazano je kako se pravo na odvjetnika uhićenika razvijalo posljednjih 20-ak godina te koji su pravni standardi postavljeni judikaturom ESLJP-a. Nadalje, obrađene su i presude ESLJP-a kojima je Republika Hrvatska osuđena za povredu prava na branitelja prilikom ispitivanje pred policijom uhićenika. Posljednjim djelom rada prikazana je primjena prakse ESLJP-a u presudama Ustavnog suda Republike Hrvatske.

Abstract (english)

This master thesis addresses the right of access to legal counsel as one of the fundamental human rights and a key element in protection of the rights of detainees in criminal proceedings. It examines how this right is regulated within Croatian legislation and international law, with particular emphasis on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Croatia. The importance of providing professional legal assistance to detainees is highlighted as essential for ensuring a fair criminal trial and maintaining the equality of arms between the defense and the prosecution. Through the analysis of several rulings, the development of the detainees' right to counsel over the past 20 years is presented, along with the legal standards established by ECtHR jurisprudence. Furthermore, the judgments of the ECtHR in which the Republic of Croatia was found in violation of the right to legal counsel during police questioning of detainees are also discussed. The final part of the paper illustrates the application of ECtHR case law in the rulings of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Croatia.
