Main goal of the project was to obtain data in order to better understand the structure and the dynamics of the illegal drug market in Croatia. The sample included for this part of the project were 156 adults convicted for illegal drug production and trafficking, enabling of drug abuse and illegal production and trafficking of substances forbidden in sports that are serving their sentence in correctional institutions and 150 adults convicted according to Law on Suppression of Drug Abuse. The data were collected by analysing the official police documentation and by using a questionnaire created to examine specific circumstances regarding to procurement, resale and consumption of drugs and commission of criminal offenses. Quantitative data was analysed by descriptive statistic, hi-square test and Mann-Whitney test.
