The Law on the Prevention of Violence at Sports Events, which regulates the behaviour of the participants in sports events, contains numerous novelties related to this form of criminal offences. Big sports events are frequently marred by serious violence, such as property damage and intentionally harmful physical assaults with occasional fatal consequences, which asks for an adequate response from the organs of the state responsible for this form of criminal behaviour. This paper discusses the most relevant provisions of the laws related to this form of violence and analyzes certain debatable issues, as well as the previous legal practice, with a special emphasis on particular problems arising in the field of court practice.
