It defines the concept of latency, in which cases it is considered being latent criminality and what its types are. Furthermore, the ratio of latent and registered crime, the rate and extent of latency are described. At the end the possible causes of its existence are presented, one of the main reasons being the failure to report the crime by its victims. The third chapter focuses on possible methods of detecting latent crime, where more space is subsequently devoted to the two most important methods, namely victimization surveys and self- report studies. For both of these...
Criminal custody as an ultima ratio instrument
Strnadová, Pavla ; Galovcová, Ingrid (advisor) ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (referee)
Criminal custody as a means of ultima ratio Abstract This diploma thesis deals with a custody in criminal proceedings as an institute which should, due to its strong intervention to personal liberty, be used in the uttermost cases. Although this conception has been enforced to the legal theory and also to the czech legislation for many years, it is necessary to state that practice has considerable reserves in this respect. With respect to planned recodification of criminal procedural law which could reflect needs of aplication, this thesis tries to look at custody in a broad scope focusing on options of subsitution of custody. Due to the fact that the custody cannot be perceive only within the limits of criminal law, the first chapter is devoted to guaranteed freedom on the constitutional level, i. e. personal freedom. To understand a context, the development of this fundamental freedom is briefly described. This thesis also submits its conception on the international and national standards. In relation to the custody, this chapter includes the solution of whether detention restricts personal freedom or deprives individuals of it. It also summarizes three fundamental principles od criminal proceedings which are strongly connected with the custody. The second chapter deals with custody directly. First it...

Corruption and bribery from the point of view of criminal law
Kučerová, Karolína ; Jelínek, Jiří (advisor) ; Galovcová, Ingrid (referee)
The rigorous thesis is focused on the phenomenon of corruption, which is one of the most serious problems of today's society. Given that the issue of corruption is quite broad, the aim of the work is not to cover all its aspects and not to solve the problem of corruption as such, as these goals would be more than ambitious. On the other hand, the work aims to clarify corruption from the perspective of criminal law and to cover at least some of its basic aspects. The work is divided into a total of five chapters. The first chapter deals with corruption in general and primarily seeks to define the concept of corruption as such and demonstrate the diversity of forms of corruption activities, as well as their prevalence. The second chapter then deals with a brief historical excursion, which aims to introduce corruption in previous criminal law, thus providing a comparison with the current legislation. The following third chapter focuses on the current criminal law regulation of corruption offenses. Attention is focused mainly on bribery offenses, which form the core of the criminal law of corruption. However, it also briefly deals with some other selected corruption offenses. Chapter four then deals with selected anti-corruption instruments, which it not only describes, but also evaluates in terms of...
Means of Substitution of Custody
Horsák, Tomáš ; Galovcová, Ingrid (advisor) ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic of means of substitution of custody. These means are milder than a custody itself which out of all the securing institutes of criminal procedural law can interfere with the rights of the individual in a most severe way. Custody must always be duly substantiated and applied only when necessary. Even if the custody of the accused is fully justified by legal facts, it is still necessary, in accordance with the exceptional nature of this institute, to examine whether it cannot be replaced by more lenient measures that can fulfil its purpose and at the same time are less restrictive in terms of basic human rights. The aim of my work is to examine such means of substitution of custody. The work is divided into four chapters. In the first chapter I characterize the institute of custody, its purpose and the reasons for which the accused can be taken into custody. This is the basis for other parts of this thesis, as the substitution of custody is linked to the custody itself inextricably. In the second chapter I follow the gradual development of substitution of custody. With the gradual increase in the level of basic human rights and freedoms, means of substitution of custody have been added accordingly. The chapter contains these developments from 1918 to present. The historical...
Inadmissibility of Evidence in Criminal Proceedings
Grossová, Andrea ; Galovcová, Ingrid (advisor) ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (referee)
Inadmissibility of Evidence in Criminal Proceedings Abstract The main goal of this work is to find out exactly how the conditions of admissibility of evidence in criminal proceedings are determined by law. This issue is explained in detail not only in the so-called Rath Case, where there was a conflict of views on the requirements of the application for spatial interception, specifically in the decisions of the High Court in Prague of October 17, 2016, file no. 6 To 106/2015 and the Supreme Court of June 7, 2017, File no. 6 Tz 3/2017-I.-693. First, the work deals with individual means of evidence and their possible defects, which may result in their inadmissibility at the court. Subsequently, the author explains the differences between the concepts of ineffectiveness, inadmissibility and illegality of evidence, which is defined only by legal science, but which are essential for understanding the issue of admissibility of evidence and possible correction of inconsistencies in the Czech legal system. It also offers insight into the issue of absolute and relative ineffectiveness of evidence and then deals with the American Doctrine of Fruit from the Poisoned Tree and the views of Czech experts in the field of law on this doctrine, or other methods of assessing secondary evidence. A comparative part is added,...

Current issues of custody within Czech criminal proceedings
Benediktová, Eliška ; Galovcová, Ingrid (advisor) ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (referee)
Current issues of custody within Czech criminal proceedings Abstract This submitted thesis describes custody's current issues within Czech criminal proceedings. The custody is an established and irreplaceable institute that has been for a long time a traditional part of criminal proceedings. Due to the nature of this institute, representing a major interference with personal freedom of the individual, it is still widely discussed not only by experts but also attracts the attention of the general public. The thesis itself consists of five consecutive chapters. The first chapter defines the concept and purpose of the custody, considering its basic principles. The following second chapter includes a brief description of custody's historical development in the Czech Republic, but the chapter also serves as an introduction to understanding the current legislation. In addition, the valid regulation is the one of 1961, which has undergone several changes since its adoption. The third chapter deals with the material concept of custody law, i.e. the legal conditions for the custody imposition and the analysis of individual reasons for it, trying to capture the bottlenecks of the related law. The fourth chapter describes some aspects of formal custody law, which characterizes the processes of authorized bodies in...
