Summary/Abstract: The current Criminal Procedure Code has introduced several elements specific to adversarial law.

During the evolution of civilization, three criminal procedural systems have appeared progressively, in a chronological (historical) order in full accordance with the political and social tendency of the states at a certain moment, namely the inquisitorial system, the accusatory system, respectively the mixed system, named the continental system.
