Summary/Abstract: Reform of the criminal procedural legislation of the Republic of Serbia was accompanied by frequent amendments to legal texts that eventually resulted in the adoption of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 2011. The main objective of the reform is to create a basis for more efficient criminal proceedings, but that this does not endanger the freedom and rights of the subjects of criminal procedure, guaranteed by international laws and national legislation. The new Code not only contains a series of completely new normative solutions, which are partly related to the measures for securing the presence of the accused in criminal proceedings, where it is particularly interesting to restrict the total length of detention, the prediction of some new measures, but also a number of legal gaps that will hamper its practical application.
