About this statute

This part is the preamble to Kosovo’s Criminal Procedure Code and identifies the code, its legal basis, and that it is being adopted. This article says the criminal procedure rules are mandatory for courts, the state prosecution, and other participants in criminal proceedings. Only a competent, independent, and impartial court established by law may impose a criminal penalty or other criminal sanction. A suspected or charged person is presumed innocent until a final court judgment proves guilt, and doubts about key facts or criminal-law provisions must be interpreted in the defendant’s favor. No one may be prosecuted or punished for an offense where there has already been a final acquittal, conviction, discontinuance, or rejection of the indictment.
