Statute overview

About this statute

This is the preamble introducing the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kosovo. Criminal offences and penalties are provided only for conduct that seriously harms protected human rights and social values, and their type and severity must be based on necessity and proportionality. Criminal offences, penalties, and compulsory treatment measures may be set only by law, and criminal sanctions cannot be imposed unless the act was defined and sanctioned by law before it was committed. The provision says the law in force at the time of the offence applies, but if the law changes before the final judgment, the more favorable law applies. This article lists criminal sanctions and compulsory treatment measures, including psychiatric detention, outpatient psychiatric treatment, and mandatory rehabilitation for drug or alcohol dependence.
