Abstract

This article addresses the issue of secondary victimisation of victims of sexual crimes, with particular emphasis on the crime of rape.

The article will also discuss selected legal measures to prevent secondary victimisation of victims of sexual crimes, as provided for by substantive criminal law and criminal procedure. The character of the article is theoretical, but it describes the problem not only from the perspective of Polish law, but also from a socio-ethical perspective.
