In the PS Kladovo detention time under the LCP shall be calculated from the moment of
deprivation of liberty, and not from the moment of the issuance of a decision on detention.
Police officers in the PA Bor, PS Negotin and PS Majdanpek shall compose a transcript of
detention for persons detained in line with the Law on Police, Law on Misdemeanours and
Law on Road Traffic Safety using a standard form, and a signed copy shall be filed in the case
file on detention. The procedural practice in relation with the composition of a transcript of
detention using the standard form after termination of the detention measure shall be
standardized for all police stations. In the PA Bor and police stations in its composition
transcript of detention shall be composed on a standard form and shall be given for signature
and insight to a person detained in line with the LCP.
In the PS Majdanpek police officer shall not every time when transporting persons use
restraints, but shall do so only after having cautiously observed specific circumstances which
indicate to the need to handcuff certain person, and in the cases stipulated by law. The PS
Majdanpek shall harmonize their procedure in relation with the use of restraints with the PA
Bor and other police stations in its composition. The Ministry of the Interior shall amend the
Instructions on Treatment of Persons Brought-in or Detained in a way to prescribe that all
restraint devices shall be used only if really necessary, and not in the course of transport, i.e.
transport of each person being brought-in, as it is the case now.
The NPM standpoint is that in the future work, police officers of the PA Bor should get written
statements from persons subject to coercive measures in relation with circumstances
surrounding the use of coercive measures and infliction of possible injuries so as to have more
complete insight is all circumstances of the case, in order to assess justification and regularity
of the use of coercive measures in the most objective fashion.
Taking into account that the Law on the Protection of Persons with Mental Disorders prescribes
police assistance, as well as bringing in of persons to a health care institution for the purpose of
check-up (when there is a doubt that a person with mental impairment are concerned), the
NPM standpoint is that it is necessary to organize training for police officers of all PA in the
Republic of Serbia in treatment of persons with mental disorders.
PA Bor shall also undertake measures in cooperation with the Ministry of the Interior, and
shall install a button for on-duty police officer alert call.
PA Bor shall undertake adequate measures in cooperation with the Ministry of Interior in the
PS Negotin and shall ensure detention rooms are in line with the applicable standards.

detention rooms in the PS Kladovo in line with the applicable standards.
