Detention is the strictest of all the measures envisaged to ensure the presence of the defendant and for the smooth conduct of criminal proceedings, whose essence is the deprivation of liberty of movement on the basis of a court decision, when the legal conditions are met. International standards, in the first place the provisions of Article 9 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, as well as article 5 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, are crucial in the field of determining and duration of detention for the criminal procedural legislation of Serbia. Basing the solutions on international standards, the Code of Criminal Procedure regulates comprehensively and accurately determines the duration of detention, and in the first place, the question of the reasons for detention. With this approach, the current Code of Criminal Procedure complements the provisions on detention and define its proper place in the system of measures to ensure the presence of the defendant and for the smooth conduct of criminal proceedings.
