| Popis: | U suvremenom svijetu zapaža se porast različitih kaznenih djela na štetu djece, zbog čega je današnje kazneno zakonodavstvo obilježeno posebnom zaštitom djece žrtava i njihovih prava. Direktivom 2012/29/EU postavljeni su standardi koji jamče prava, potporu i zaštitu žrtava kaznenih djela, pogotovo kada se radi o djeci kao osjetljivim i ranjivim bićima. U okviru toga važan je segment ugradnja odredaba Direktive u hrvatsko kazneno procesno pravo u cilju optimalizacije domaćih zakonskih rješenja i ostvarenja sinergijskog učinka europskog i hrvatskog prava. Cilj je rada uz kratak povijesni prikaz analizirati procesni položaj i prava djece žrtava u kaznenom postupku kroz implementaciju Direktive, odraz u praksi i moguće dopune zakonodavstva. Provedeno je istraživanje sudske prakse, relevantnih odluka ESLJP-a i njihova utjecaja na odluke hrvatskih sudova. Istraživanje je usmjereno i na zaštitu djetetovih prava kao protutežu zaštiti prava okrivljenika u odlukama USRH, VSRH i ŽSSt. Komparativnom analizom modaliteta ispitivanja djece u talijanskom i američkom pravu upozorava se na slične problemske situacije u zaštiti prava djece žrtava u svjetlu okrivljenikova prava na obranu, uz prijedloge unaprjeđenja prava i zaštite djece de lege ferenda. A rise in the incidence of various criminal offences against children has been observed in the modern world, and for this reason the current criminal legislation pays particular attention to the protection of children and their rights. Directive 2012/29/EU establishes minimum standards guaranteeing the rights, support and protection of victims of crime, especially when these victims are children as particularly sensitive and vulnerable persons. Therefore, it is important to transpose the provisions of the Directive into Croatian criminal procedure law with a view to optimising domestic legal solutions and achieving synergy between European and Croatian law. The aim of this paper is to offer, after a brief historical overview, an analysis of the procedural status and rights of child victims in criminal proceedings through the implementation of the Directive, its reflection in practice, and possible legislative amendments. A study was conducted of the case law, including the relevant decisions of the ECtHR and how they affected the decisions of Croatian courts. The study also focused on the protection of the rights of the child as a counterbalance to the protection of the rights of the defendant in the decisions of the Croatian Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court and county courts. A comparative analysis of the modalities of questioning children in Italian and American law points to similar problematic situations related to the protection of the rights of child victims in the light of the defendant’s right to defence, and provides proposals on how to improve the protection of the rights of children de lege ferenda. |
