| Summary: | The paper deals with rights and position of victims in international
documents, with special reference to the standards created by the European
Court of Human Rights through its practice. This paper aims to provide brief
analysis of some of the most important international documents, which set
forth basic rights for victims, including: right to participate in the
criminal proceedings, right to protection and the right to compensation. The
paper intends to analyze these key right (standards, principles) through
relevant case law of the European Court of Human Rights, given that the
wording of the relevant documents does not determine what entails the
realization of a specific standard in real life. The main purpose of the
article is to examine the compliance of regulations and practices in Serbia
with international standards on the status and the rights of victims, from
which some recommendations for improvement might arise. [Projekat
