In the content of the paper, the authors deal with the application of the amended provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which relate to the conditions for the extension of previously determined special investigative actions. The paper provides an overview of the available case law of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Prosecutor’s Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina in meeting the standards for extension of special investigative actions, all with regard to the application of the amended provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina that are harmonised with the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The paper analyses the amended provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code regarding the purpose of fulfilling the obligations arising from the Decision of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina Ref. No. 5/16 and also analyses the application of such amended provisions in the case law of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Prosecutor’s Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The analysis shows that the application in practice causes legal uncertainty regarding the uniform standard in the application of the amended provisions. The paper states that the amended provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code meet the obligations set out in Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights and Freedoms, but in practice there is no uniform application of the amended regulation that would protect the public and security interests of the State and its citizens.

Inspiration for the work and the problem (s) addressed by the work: The important role of the police in preventing and sanctioning corruption, as well as the existence of police corruption that hinders the fight against corruption in society, were the inspiration for analyzing data on corrupt actions of police officers and conducting research among participants in police education in the Republic of Croatia on the perception of corruption in the police and measures to combat it. Purpose of the work(scientific and / or social): This research aims to present data on corruption in the police and determine its perception among two categories of police education students (students of basic education for the profession of police officer and police officers in specialist education) and determine what measures they considered the most appropriate to fight corruption. Methodology / Design: Data on corrupt actions of police officers and the results of a survey of police education participants, using statistical analysis, are presented in text and table Limitation of research / work: Statistics of corrupt actions of police officers include only that part of those actions that are detected and prosecuted, while respondents' attitudes contain a certain dose of (subjective) impressions gained from personal experience, and respondents may be marked with the intention to present themselves and colleagues in a better light than they really are. Results / Findings: Data confirm the existence of police corruption problems. The results of the survey indicate that the respondents are familiar with corruption in the police. It is worrying that the respondents do not have a completely negative attitude towards all corrupt practices, ie that they are not ready to report every corrupt act, and it is positive that they think that by raising awareness about the harmfulness of corruption and other measures it is possible to reduce this phenomenon. General conclusion: Corruption in the police organization makes it difficult to enforce the law and fight corruption. Preventive and repressive measures should be used to minimize police corruption. Justification of the research / work: This research can be used in the planning and implementation of educational activities among participants in police education programs and for the adoption and implementation of plans and measures for the prevention and sanctioning of corrupt practices in the police.

The aim of the research is to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the occurrence and magnitude of mental health consequences among students at the University of Sarajevo, which manifest themselves in certain types and levels of psychological distress, as well as to examine various aspects of general mental functioning that are particularly important in an online learning and teaching environment. The research was conducted in July 2021 on a sample of 3439 students at the University of Sarajevo. The following measurement instruments were used: The Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), a Stress Coping Strategies Inventory and a Sociodemographic Variables Questionnaire. The results have shown that depression, anxiety and stress were present among students at levels which require additional interventions. Symptoms are significantly more present among female students than among male students. The differences tested between students of distinct faculties indicate that arts students have the highest values of depression, followed by students studying humanities, while social sciences students show the lowest values. The results showed that positive coping with stress is a protective factor for the symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress, while negative coping style is a risk factor for students' mental health. The obtained results suggest that the pandemic has a significant psychological impact on students that require interventions in improving their mental health.

The paper presents a short chronology of the political conflict in the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija (Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo, until the constitutional changes of 1989), which in the 1990s turned into an armed conflict in which the security forces of the Republic of Serbia from October 1998 to June 1999, carried out a planned action of ethnic cleansing of Kosovo Albanians. In the action, several thousand Albanian civilians were executed extrajudicially and between 800,000 and 850,000 Albanians were forcefully expelled to Macedonia, Montenegro, Albania and Bosnia and Herzegovina. This paper is based on the final judgments of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) by which the highest state officials and military and police generals in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Republic of Serbia were convicted of joint criminal enterprise aimed at altering the ethnic structure in at least 13 Kosovo municipalities, especially in the period of the NATO alliance campaign from March 24 to June 12, 1999. The role of the Ministry of Interior in the joint criminal enterprise (JCE), as established by the ICTY judgments to the then Ministry of Interior leaders: Vlastimir Đordđević, head of the Public Security Department, Sreten Lukić, head of the Ministry of Interior Staff for Kosovo, (Vlajko Stojiljković, the Minister of Interior, was also accused, but he committed suicide in 2002) - is undoubted. Therefore, it calls for a public analysis and presentation of the role of this part of the repressive apparatus of the state of Serbia in the ethnic cleansing of Kosovo Albanians, as well as its role in the planned and systematic concealment of crimes. The concealment of the crime was conducted from March to June 1999 by the Ministry of Interior forces through secret operations of transfer of bodies of Kosovo Albanians from primary graves in Kosovo and their burial in mass graves at secret locations in Serbia. Three graves were discovered in 2001 and one in 2013, with the assumption that there are more because they are looking for another 1,086 Albanian victims and 562 victims of Serbs, Roma, Bosniaks, Egyptians, Ashkali and others.

Extremely complex crisis that occurred after the proclamation of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, contributed to the escalation of racism and xenophobia in the international arena. Their current rise must be observed from the perspective of the historically established pattern of connecting minorities, racial groups and certain communities with infectious diseases, which has made racist and xenophobic approaches and narratives indispensable constituents of responses to them. The stigma of the disease, as history confirms, is a permanent companion to the outbreak of infectious diseases, thus the coronavirus pandemic was no exception. The radicalization of public discourse through nativism, hatred and fear during the current health crisis, with the significant support of some mainstream media, was in the forefront contributed to by neo-nationalist forces. They exploited the insecurity and uncertainty generated by the pandemic to project fear of the other and different with their obligatory emanation as potential threats. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic contributed primarily to the reaffirmation of racism and xenophobia against the Chinese and Asians, which was supported by the coronavirus provenance, it undoubtedly paved the way for a general racist and xenophobic discourse.

Koordinacija sigurnosnog sektora složeno je pitanje za svaku zemlju. Dakle, osnovno pitanje koje se postavlja nije pitanje "Postoji li potreba za koordinacijom sigurnosne zajednice"?, već centralno pitanje "Kako se postiže potrebna koordinacija, posebno u složenim krizama sigurnosti i zdravlja"? Koordinacija je "stari bol" sigurnosnog sektora makedonske države i posljednjih godina u nedostatku konkretnih rješenja tretirana je raznim političkim, pragmatičnim, pa čak i ad hoc intervencijama. Koordinacija je i dalje veliki izazov za makedonsku državu jer su iskustva sa zdravstvenim krizama izazvanim pandemijom Covid-19 potvrdila da je neophodno osigurati funkcionalnu povezanost svih sigurnosnih aktera kako bi se predviđeni zadaci mogli izvršavati zajednički i koordinirano, bez problema. Stoga je ideja u ovom radu ukazati na potrebu koordinacije sigurnosnog sektora za pravilnim, koordiniranim i sinhroniziranim djelovanjem u složenim sigurnosnim okolnostima.
安全部门的协调对国家来说是一项艰巨的任务。然而,人们提出的基本问题不是 "是否需要对安全部门进行协调",而是 "如何实现必要的协调,特别是在复杂的安全和卫生危机中 "这一核心问题。协调是马其顿国家安全部门的一个 "老问题",在没有具体解决方案的情况下,通过各种政治、务实和临时干预措施加以解决。协调仍是马其顿国家面临的一项重大挑战,因为 19 世纪科维德大流行病引发的健康危机的经验证明,必须确保所有安全行动者的职能整合,以便能够以团结一致、协调一致的方式顺利完成任务。Stoga je ideja u ovom radu ukazati na potrebcije koordinacije sigurnosnog sektora za pravilnim, koordiniranim i synhroniziranim djelovanjem u složenim sigurnosnim okolnostima.

The risk of infection arising from face-to-face contact during the current coronavirus pandemic has contributed to an increasing interest in the use of remote technology by law enforcement organisations for the purpose of conducting investigative interviews. Such technology was used widely to interview suspected offenders who were in custody during the pandemic but law enforcement agencies in the United Kingdom were more cautious about using it with victims, witnesses and non-custodial suspects. This caution stems from concerns about the ability of interviewers to control the interview environment, build rapport and manage trauma throughout the process. This paper will review the limited research on the use of remote technology to conduct investigative interviews and considers relevant literature from other contexts (e.g., therapy) that might be used to inform the debate. While the use of remote technology can certainly offer more flexibility and greater access to justice during investigations, further research is needed into how and when it may be used safely and effectively and into identifying the situations in which using it can be productive and those in which it should only be used with caution.

The results from recent criminological research in the field of juvenile delinquency, address the family as an important factor that can influence on the children violent behavior. According to these findings, this paper will elaborate and analyze part of family characteristics that can influence, as a risk factors for children violent behavior. There are many characteristics that are related to the family which can be put in some correlation with the violent behavior of the child. Thus, the way the family function, the relationships that exist between family members, the size of the family, but also the circumstances in which family lives (especially economic circumstances) can further deepen or emphasize the negative individual characteristics of children. The upbringing style, the lack of attention, parental rejection, parental indulgence, negligence, the violent behavior in the home (physical and verbal aggression between parents and parent towards a child), increases the likelihood of negative behavior in children. In addition to the above-mentioned factors, based on a research review on child aggressive behavior, it has been concluded that the absence of a father, loss of a parent through divorce or death are factors that also can be associated with childhood aggression. Among the important family factors that will also be analyzed in this paper are the presence of alcoholism, criminal, and aggressive behavior in the family.
