Popis: Let $G$ be a Polish group and let $H \leq G$ be a compact subgroup. We prove that there exists a Borel set $T \subset G$ which is simultaneously a complete set of coset representatives of left and right cosets, provided that a certain index condition is satisfied. Moreover, we prove that this index condition holds provided that $G$ is locally compact and $G/G^\circ$ is compact or $H$ is a compact Lie group. This generalizes a result which is known for discrete groups under various finiteness assumptions, but is known to fail for general inclusions of infinite groups. As an application, we prove that Bohr closed subgroups of countable, discrete groups admit common transversals.
