Summary/Abstract: In the EU Directive 2016/343 of the European Parliament and of the Council, additions were made regarding the presumption of innocence and the right to be present in criminal proceedings. The new regulation comes to reaffirm EU commitment to meeting the individual rights and freedoms, but in terms of its necessity is likely to signal some slippage in the evolution of contemporary society, liable to jeopardize the effective operation of the presumption of innocence. Some of these slippages may include certain side effects related to redefining relations between the public and private sphere as well as developments in telecommunications technology, which expose the contemporary society to the exercise of absolute control.ties.
