Assistance to victims of crime
Mutinová, Radka ; Gřivna, Tomáš (advisor) ; Herczeg, Jiří (referee)
The topic of my thesis is Assistance to victims of crime. I have chosen this topic for its importance in our era full of violence and crime. It is an issue interesting not only for lawyers but for many other different professions and public in general. My goal was to lay out as much information as possible and talk about some problematic spots regarding the rights of victims and their position not only in the criminal procedure. The first part of my thesis is focused on brief explanation of the history and development of the relatively young science - victimology and basic terms used in victimology. Significant part of the first chapter covers analysis of one simple word "victim". The following part of this paper tries to examine individual elements of the complex assistance provided to crime victims. The third chapter discusses possibilities of financial support to the victims from the government when it is impossible to obtain reparation from the offender. Many countries, including the Czech Republic, have enacted appropriate laws and have also become signatories of the European Convention on the Compensation of Victims of Violent Crimes. The following chapter is concerned with the role of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in the field of crime victim assistance and their cooperation with the...
Road traffic accidents and their victims
CHMELA, Michal
I chose Road traffic accidents and their victims as the theme of my bachelor's thesis. In the thesis I focus on issues related to road traffic crashes, and define the powers and obligations of police authorities investigating these accidents as well as their victims. I also suggest preventive measures aimed at reducing the number of road traffic accidents. On the basis of criminal records of the Police of the Czech Republic kept at the Road Traffic Inspectorate of the Territorial Department České Budějovice, the method of secondary and content analysis was used for the research. Data about offences committed during road traffic accidents were processed and injuries of the victims of these accidents were classified according to their fault. Selected were only persons who suffered injuries in road traffic accidents. The analysis revealed that in the examined group of 405 road traffic accidents investigated as a criminal offense, 265 persons regarded as victims out of 278 harmed persons received information concerning the legal matters. In case of victims killed in the accidents, close persons received instructions in all 17 cases. Only in one case, in 2013, the victim took advantage of the possibility that the records can be made accessible only to authorities involved in criminal proceedings and to the Probation and Mediation Service of the Czech Republic, so this particular file was kept separately. The executed analysis showed that victims exercise their rights. The analysis also partially refuted the assertion that the police officers inform and explain all available instructions properly. The thesis can be used to educate the public, as well as in the course of theoretical lessons. It can also be applied in practice as a methodological guideline.
