International legal framework for combating organized crime

Organized crime, besides terrorism, is the biggest threat to modern society in peacetime conditions. In the fight against the most serious forms of organized crime, the legislative framework as a basis for the treatment of specialized bodies and the processing of perpetrators is very important. At the international level, undoubtedly the most important document is the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and additional Protocols: I- for the prevention, suppression and punishment of trafficking in human beings, women and children ; II- against the smuggling of migrants and III- against the illegal production and trafficking of firearms, its parts, assemblies and ammunition. At the regional level, the most important international documents are the Vienna Convention on International Police Cooperation and the SELEC Convention. The States Parties have undertaken to harmonize their national legislation, including Croatia and Serbia, which have adopted lex specialis regulations for the fight against organized crime. The regulations that regulate the criminal procedure, seizure of property acquired through criminal offenses and others were adopted. As a member of the EU, Croatia is in a better position, while Serbia is in the process of negotiations on the application for admission.
