description | The principal of mutual recognition in criminal cases is present in EU criminal law since the Framework Decision on the European Evidence Warrant was accepted in 2008. Although the instrument failed to achieve its purpose, the goal of harmonizing cross-border criminal investigations still remains. For the European Investigation Order to succeed a minimum rules in guarantees of fair trials are needed. The European Union recognized this need and the Stockholm Programme was launched in 2009 aiming to realize that. Directives regarding certain suspect rights were accepted since then, including a directive on the right to information and the presumption of innocence. The minimum rules regarding these suspect rights can have a serious impact on national criminal justice systems and their implementation will result in a more harmonised criminal law. These documents were drafted in accordance with the ECHR and the relevant case law of the ECtHR which promises a more enhanced integration of the two major European systems of legislation. |
