Ugrožavanje policijskih službenika u Srbiji - kratak osvrt na kaznenopravni aspekt

Abstract

The police profession is a very complicated area of social life because police officers perform one of the most complex tasks in society, which includes the fight against crime, maintaining public order and peace, security at sports events and other police work. The author deals with the research of endangering police officers when performing police tasks and in connection with police tasks. The normative method was used to analyze the criminal law aspects of endangering police officers, where the emphasis was placed on the police officer as a passive subject of felony and misdemeanors. An analysis of the content of documents containing statistical indicators on aggravated murders, attacks, and obstruction of police officers for the period 2016-2020 in Serbia was performed. The collected data were first processed and then presented in tables and graphical models in the paper, and certain conclusions were drawn by the method of synthesis and on the basis of performed analyses. The research shows that penal policy is mild, so in the future special programs and projects should be designed in order to make citizens aware of the harmfulness of endangering police officers and at the same time show positive examples of cooperation between the police and the citizens.
