Ratificira se Sporazum med Republiko Slovenijo in Republiko Madžarsko o čezmejnem policijskem sodelovanju organov za zatiranje kriminalitete, podpisan na Brdu pri Kranju 25. oktobra 2006.

Besedilo sporazuma se v izvirniku v slovenskem in angleškem jeziku glasi:(1) Republika Slovenija in Republika Madžarska (v nadaljevanju pogodbenici) sta se ob upoštevanju prijateljskih vezi med državama, da bi v interesu varnosti okrepili ter poglobili sodelovanje organov za zatiranje kriminalitete, v prepričanju, da bi celovito razvijali sodelovanje na obmejnih območjih in med organi, pristojnimi za izvajanje tega sporazuma, da bi s pomočjo usklajenih dejavnosti še učinkoviteje delovali proti mednarodnemu organiziranemu kriminalu, ob upoštevanju svojih mednarodnih obveznosti ter notranjih zakonov in drugih predpisov, ocenjujoč rezultate svojega dosedanjega sodelovanja sporazumeli:

1. Z namenom varovanja javnega reda in javne varnosti pogodbenici okrepita sodelovanje na področju preprečevanja, odkrivanja in pregona kaznivih dejanj (v nadaljevanju: zatiranje kriminalitete), ki so podlaga za izdajo evropskega naloga za prijetje, ter mejnega in prometnega policijskega dela. Pogodbenici sodelujeta v skladu s tem sporazumom, pri čemer upoštevata svoje notranje zakone in druge predpise ter mednarodne obveznosti. 2. Pogodbenica lahko delno ali v celoti odkloni sodelovanje ali postavi pogoje zanj, če to ogroža oziroma krši njeno suverenost, notranjo varnost, javni red ali če je v nasprotju z njenimi notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi. 3. Zaprosilo, ki se nanaša na vojaško ali politično kaznivo dejanje, se ne pošilja oziroma ga ni moč izpolniti. Dejanja ni mogoče šteti za politično kaznivo dejanje, če je pri njegovi storitvi, upoštevajoč vse okoliščine, namen, motiv kaznivega dejanja, način njegove storitve ter predmete, ki so bili uporabljeni ali namenjeni za storitev, kriminalna narava kaznivega dejanja prevladala nad politično. 4. Sodelovanje ne vsebuje pravne pomoči, ki je v pristojnosti pravosodnih organov pogodbenic. 5. Sodelovanje po tem sporazumu ne vsebuje upravnega sodelovanja organov pogodbenic pri davčnih, pristojbinskih in carinskih upravnih zadevah.

1. Policija in drugi organi za zatiranje kriminalitete, ki sodelujejo pri izvajanju tega sporazuma in so v skladu z notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi pogodbenic pooblaščeni za zatiranje kriminalitete ter druge naloge po tem sporazumu (v nadaljevanju: pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje), so: a) za slovensko pogodbenico: – Ministrstvo za notranje zadeve, Policija, Generalna policijska uprava in njene notranje organizacijske enote ter območne organizacijske enote; b) za madžarsko pogodbenico: – Policija, Mejna straža, službe Carinske in finančne straže, ki opravljajo naloge preiskovanja in preprečevanja kriminala, Služba za notranji nadzor. 2. Centralne službe za stike pri izvajanju tega sporazuma so: a) za slovensko pogodbenico: – Ministrstvo za notranje zadeve, Policija, Generalna policijska uprava; b) za madžarsko pogodbenico: – Državna glavna policijska kapitanija, Center za mednarodno sodelovanje na področju kriminalitete. 3. Obmejna območja po tem sporazumu so: a) za slovensko pogodbenico: – območje v krajevni pristojnosti Policijske uprave Murska Sobota; b) za madžarsko pogodbenico: – območje županije Zala, – območje županije Vas. 4. Pogodbenici se po diplomatski poti nemudoma pisno obvestita o spremembi centralnih služb za stike oziroma pooblaščenih organov za sodelovanje ter obmejnih območij.

1. Pri izvajanju tega sporazuma pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic sodelujejo in si pomagajo na podlagi zaprosila. 2. Če ta sporazum ne določa drugače, si pogodbenici zaprosila in odgovore nanje pisno pošiljata in jih sprejemata (sem spada tudi pošiljanje po telefaksu in elektronski telekomunikacijski mreži) prek centralnih služb za stike. V nujnih primerih so zaprosila lahko tudi ustna; ustna zaprosila je treba nemudoma pisno potrditi. 3. Izključno centralne službe za stike pogodbenic lahko izpolnijo zaprosila, pri katerih gre za izmenjavo informacij, ki jih je pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice pridobil z dovoljenjem pravosodnih organov za odkrivanje kaznivega dejanja, za katero se izreka kazen zapora dve leti ali več, od davčnih služb, ponudnika elektronskih komunikacijskih storitev, organov, ki obdelujejo zdravstvene podatke in druge z njimi povezane podatke ter podatke, ki se kvalificirajo kot gospodarska skrivnost (bančna skrivnost, poslovna skrivnost, tajnost vrednostih papirjev, zavarovalniška skrivnost, blagajniška skrivnost). 4. Če je na podlagi zakonov in drugih predpisov pogodbenic za pošiljanje oziroma izpolnitev zaprosila potrebno dovoljenje, odobritev, privolitev oziroma soglasje pravosodnih organov, je dovoljeno izpolniti zaprosilo šele po pridobitvi dovoljenja, odobritve, privolitve oziroma soglasja. 5. Pravosodni organi po tem sporazumu so: a) za Republiko Slovenijo: sodišča in državna tožilstva; b) za Republiko Madžarsko: sodišča in organi tožilstva. 6. Če pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice nima pooblastil ali ni pristojen za reševanje zaprosila, ga pošlje pristojnemu organu in o tem obvesti organ, ki ga je poslal. 7. Če izpolnitev pod pogoji iz zaprosila ni ali je samo delno mogoča, pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje ali centralna služba za stike zaprošene pogodbenice o tem nemudoma obvesti organ, ki ga je poslal. 8. Če je ob prejemu zaprosila očitno, da ne bo izpolnjeno v roku, ki je v njem določen, in je v utemeljitvi roka izrecno navedeno, da bi zamuda ogrozila uspešnost postopka pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke, mora pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje ali centralna služba za stike zaprošene pogodbenice navesti rok, v katerem je mogoča izpolnitev zaprosila. 9. Po obvestilu iz sedmega in osmega odstavka pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke sporoči, ali naj se zaprosilo kljub temu izpolni. Nato se pooblaščena organa za sodelovanje pogodbenic dogovorita o nadaljnjem reševanju zaprosila. 10. Pri reševanju zaprosil pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice in drugi organi, ki rešujejo zaprosila, ali organi, ki z njimi sodelujejo, ukrepajo v skladu z zaprosilom in v njem navedenimi tehničnimi sredstvi, razen če je to v nasprotju z zakoni in drugimi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice.

1. Če ni s tem sporazumom določeno drugače, zaprosilo vsebuje najmanj: a) ime pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje, ki je zaprosilo poslal; b) predmet zaprosila; c) opis in pravno kvalifikacijo dejanja, ki je predmet zaprosila; d) rok za izpolnitev zaprosila in obrazložitev nujnosti reševanja; e) dovoljenje pravosodnih organov, kadar je potrebno; f) prošnjo za udeležbo člana pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke pri izpolnitvi zaprosila, če to zahteva; g) identifikacijske podatke osebe, če so znani, v obsegu, ki je potreben za izpolnitev zaprosila. 2. Pogodbenici pri izvajanju tega sporazuma uporabljata slovenski in madžarski jezik. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje se lahko dogovorijo, da pri svojih stikih uporabljajo drug jezik.

1. Na podlagi zaprosila lahko pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic v skladu s svojimi notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi za zavarovanje sledi in dokazov na svojem državnem območju ugotavljajo identiteto, na javnem kraju opravijo poostreno kontrolo, opravijo pregled zgradb, objektov, krajev, oblačil, paketov in vozil ter primejo iskano osebo in jo pridržijo. 2. O izvedbi ukrepov iz prejšnjega odstavka je treba nemudoma obvestiti pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke.

Za učinkovito zatiranje kriminalitete pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic na podlagi zaprosila pošljejo zlasti: a) podatke o osebah, udeleženih v organiziranem kriminalu, informacije, ki se nanašajo na povezave storilcev s kaznivim dejanjem, o organiziranih kriminalnih združbah in skupinah kriminalcev, značilnem obnašanju storilcev in skupin, o kaznivih dejanjih, ki so v pripravi ali so ostala pri poskusu ali so bila storjena, zlasti pa informacije o času, kraju in načinu storitve dejanja, napadenih objektih, posebnih okoliščinah in izvedenih ukrepih, kadar je to potrebno, za zatiranje kriminalitete; b) informacije o metodah in novih oblikah mednarodnega kriminala; c) informacije o izsledkih kriminalističnih, kriminoloških raziskav in drugih raziskav, o praksi, delovnih metodah in uporabi sredstev pri preiskavah z namenom njihovega izboljšanja; d) informacije o predmetih ali vzorcih predmetov, s katerimi so bila storjena kazniva dejanja ali so na njih sledi kaznivega dejanja, so bili uporabljeni ali namenjeni kot sredstva pri storitvi kaznivega dejanja ali izvirajo iz njega; e) informacije o veljavni pravni ureditvi v zvezi s kaznivimi dejanji po tem sporazumu; f) informacije o premoženjski koristi, pridobljeni s kaznivim dejanjem ali zaradi njega.

Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic lahko v posameznih primerih tudi brez zaprosila pošiljajo informacije, ki jih potrebujejo pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje druge pogodbenice za zatiranje kriminalitete in odvrnitev nevarnosti, ki ogroža javni red in javno varnost.

1. Pošiljanje zaprosil in odgovarjanje nanje lahko potekata neposredno med pooblaščenimi organi za sodelovanje, če: a) za informacijo prosijo pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje, pristojni v obmejnem območju, ta pa se nanaša izključno na obmejno območje, ali b) bi izmenjava informacij prek centralnih služb za stike povzročila zamudo, ki bi ogrozila interese postopka ali uspešno izpolnitev zaprosila. 2. Šteje se, da se informacija nanaša na obmejno območje, zlasti če se podatki nanašajo na: a) osebo iz zaprosila, katere prebivališče (kraj prebivanja) je na obmejnem območju, ali se domneva, da se v času zaprosila tam zadržuje; b) dejavnost obravnavane osebe v obmejnem območju; c) predmet, za katerega se domneva, da je v obmejnem območju; d) sedež pravne osebe v obmejnem območju in njeno dejavnost. 3. Neposredna izmenjava informacij iz prvega in drugega odstavka vsebuje zlasti: a) ugotavljanje in potrditev identitete oseb, kraja in naslova prebivališča; b) ugotavljanje obstoja, veljavnosti in omejitev vozniških dovoljenj, dovoljenj za vodno in zračno plovbo; c) dajanje identifikacijskih podatkov motornih vozil (registrska številka, številka šasije, številka motorja); d) ugotovitev identitete in iskanje lastnika (upravljavca) ali uporabnika motornih vozil ter vodnih in zračnih plovil; e) ugotovitev obstoja orožnih listin, njihove veljavnosti in omejitev; f) ugotovitev lastnika, naročnika in uporabnika elektronske telekomunikacijske terminalne opreme; g) poizvedbe o predmetih in vzorcih; h) iskanje oseb s posebnim strokovnim znanjem.

Pogodbenici si redno izmenjavata informacije in analize razmer na področju kriminalitete, javnega reda in javne varnosti. Po potrebi skupaj analizirata osrednja vprašanja o razmerah na področju kriminalitete in njenem preprečevanju ter se dogovorita o potrebnih posebnih ukrepih.

1. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic si na zaprosilo v skladu s svojimi notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi pomagajo pri iskanju osebe ali predmeta na neznanem kraju oziroma pri ugotavljanju identitete neznanih oseb ali trupel. 2. Na zaprosilo pogodbenice prosilke lahko pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice razpiše tiralico. Če pogoji za razpis tiralice iz katerega koli razloga ne obstajajo več, vključujoč tudi prijetje iz tretjega odstavka, se tiralica nemudoma prekliče. 3. O prijetju osebe, ki je bilo opravljeno na podlagi razpisane tiralice na zaprosilo pogodbenice prosilke na območju zaprošene pogodbenice, je treba nemudoma obvestiti centralno službo za stike pogodbenice prosilke.

1. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic so pri preiskovanju na svojem državnem območju pooblaščeni nadaljevati tajno opazovanje na območju druge pogodbenice, če gre za osebo, ki je osumljena udeležbe v organizirani kriminalni skupini ali storitve naklepnega kaznivega dejanja, za katero je predpisana kazen najmanj pet let zapora, ali osebo, ki je povezana z njo ali se pripravlja, da bo navezala stik z njo, če je centralna služba za stike slednje odobrila na podlagi predhodno poslanega zaprosila. Za dovoljenje se lahko postavijo pogoji. 2. Ob sumu kaznivih dejanj iz prejšnjega odstavka lahko pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic tajno opazujejo osebo, ki je povezana s storilcem, če je mogoče utemeljeno sklepati, da bi s pomočjo te osebe identificirali ali odkrili storilca ali bi jih privedla do storilca. 3. Na zahtevo pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice je treba nadaljevanje tajnega opazovanja nemudoma prepustiti pooblaščenemu organu za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. Pogodbenici si na zaprosilo lahko vzajemno pomagata pri tajnem opazovanju. 4. Dovoljenje za tajno opazovanje velja za celotno območje pogodbenic. Pri tajnem opazovanju se skupna državna meja pogodbenic lahko prestopi tudi zunaj mejnih prehodov in obratovalnega časa. 5. Če bi zaradi zamude nastala nevarnost ali bili ogroženi interesi zatiranja kriminalitete, se tajno opazovanje lahko izvaja tudi brez predhodnega dovoljenja iz prvega odstavka. V tem primeru se ob prestopu državne meje nemudoma obvesti pristojni pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. Zaprosilo se potem nemudoma pošlje centralni službi za stike zaprošene pogodbenice. V zaprosilu se navedejo razlogi za prestop državne meje brez predhodnega dovoljenja. 6. Pristojna pooblaščena organa za sodelovanje iz prejšnjega odstavka sta: a) za slovensko pogodbenico: – Ministrstvo za notranje zadeve, Policija, Generalna policijska uprava; b) za madžarsko pogodbenico: – Glavna državna policijska kapitanija. 7. Tajno opazovanje iz petega odstavka je treba prekiniti takoj, če to zahteva pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice ali če dovoljenje, potrebno za izpolnitev zaprosila, ni bilo pridobljeno v petih urah po prestopu državne meje. 8. Tajno opazovanje se lahko izvaja samo pod temi pogoji: a) uradnik izvaja tajno opazovanje skladno s tem členom in notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi tiste pogodbenice, na območju katere deluje, poleg tega ravna skladno z navodili krajevno pristojnega pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje; b) razen v primeru iz petega odstavka mora imeti uradnik, ki izvaja tajno opazovanje, pri sebi dokument, ki potrjuje, da je bilo tajno opazovanje dovoljeno; c) uradnik, ki izvaja tajno opazovanje, mora biti vedno zmožen izkazati, da opravlja uradno nalogo; d) uradnik, ki izvaja tajno opazovanje, ne sme vstopiti v zasebno stanovanje ali v prostore, ki niso javno dostopni, lahko pa vstopi v prostore za delo, obratovalne in poslovne prostore, ki so javno dostopni med delovnim časom; e) uradnik, ki izvaja tajno opazovanje, pripravi poročilo za centralno službo za stike zaprošene pogodbenice; f) če so za izvajanje tajnega opazovanja potrebna tudi tehnična sredstva, se smejo uporabljati, če to dovoljujejo zakoni in drugi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice. V zaprosilu iz prvega odstavka se navedejo tehnična sredstva, ki se bodo uporabljala za tajno opazovanje; g) pri uporabi vozil za tajno opazovanje veljajo prometni predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice.

1. Pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke lahko brez predhodnega dovoljenja druge pogodbenice nadaljuje zasledovanje osebe na območju zaprošene pogodbenice, če je ta oseba na območju pogodbenice prosilke storila ali poskusila storiti kaznivo dejanje, ki je podlaga za izdajo evropskega naloga za prijetje, in a) so jo pri tem zalotili ali b) je na begu iz pridržanja, pripora ali prestajanja zaporne kazni in če bi zamuda zaradi obvestila pooblaščenemu organu za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice močno otežila prijetje storilca oziroma bi močno ogrozila interese zatiranja kriminalitete ter če se domneva, da pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice ne bi mogel prevzeti zasledovanja v primernem času. 2. V primerih iz prejšnjega odstavka se takoj, ko je mogoče, obvesti pristojni pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice, vendar najpozneje pri prestopu državne meje. 3. Pristojni pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje iz prejšnjega odstavka so: a) za slovensko pogodbenico: – Policijska uprava Murska Sobota; b) za madžarsko pogodbenico, odvisno od kraja prestopa državne meje: – Glavna policijska kapitanija županije Zala, – Glavna policijska kapitanija županije Vas. 4. Zasledovanje se nemudoma prekine, če to zahteva pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. 5. Če uradnik pogodbenice prosilke, ki izvaja zasledovanje, to zahteva, pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice zasledovano osebo prime, da bi ugotovil njeno identiteto ali ji odvzel prostost. 6. Če zahteva za prekinitev zasledovanja ni dana in če pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje ne more pravočasno prevzeti zasledovanja, sme uradnik pogodbenice prosilke, ki izvaja zasledovanje, zasledovano osebo pridržati na kraju samem. O tem ukrepu se nemudoma obvesti pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. 7. Zasledovanje se lahko izvaja na celotnem območju pogodbenic brez časovne omejitve. 8. Zasledovanje se lahko izvaja pod temi pogoji: a) uradnik, ki izvaja zasledovanje, mora ravnati v skladu s tem sporazumom in zakoni ter drugimi predpisi pogodbenice, na območju katere izvaja zasledovanje; b) zasledovanje se lahko izvaja le na kopnem; c) uradnik, ki izvaja zasledovanje, ne sme vstopiti v zasebno stanovanje ali prostore, lahko pa vstopi v prostore za delo, obratovalne in poslovne prostore, ki so javno dostopni med delovnim časom; d) uradnik, ki izvaja zasledovanje, mora biti vedno zmožen izkazati, da opravlja uradno nalogo; e) pri uporabi vozil med zasledovanjem veljajo prometni predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice. Za prepoznavo je treba na vozilu uporabljati razpoznavni znak; f) uradnik, ki izvaja zasledovanje, mora biti nedvoumno razpoznaven po uniformi ali dopolnilnih označbah, nameščenih na vozilu; g) predmeti, ki jih ima prijeta oseba, se po možnosti shranijo na varnem do prihoda pristojnih pooblaščenih organov za sodelovanje; h) če so za izvajanje zasledovanja potrebna tudi tehnična sredstva, se smejo uporabljati, če to dovoljujejo zakoni in drugi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice; i) uradnik, ki izvaja zasledovanje, po končanem zasledovanju poroča pristojnemu pooblaščenemu organu za sodelovanje ali centralni službi za stike zaprošene pogodbenice. Na zahtevo teh organov ostane dosegljiv, dokler niso okoliščine zasledovanja ustrezno razjasnjene. Ta pogoj velja tudi za primere, ko zasledovana oseba ni bila prijeta. 9. Osebo, ki so jo prijeli med zasledovanjem, zasliši pristojni pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. Osebno svobodo prijete osebe je moč omejiti v skladu z zakoni in drugimi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice. 10. O zasledovanju je treba obvestiti tudi centralno službo za stike pogodbenice.

1. Pod pogoji iz tega člena pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic na podlagi zaprosila omogočijo kontrolirano pošiljko na območju svoje države. Kontrolirana pošiljka je prikrita dejavnost pooblaščenih organov za sodelovanje, pri kateri se v okviru mednarodnega sodelovanja na območje pogodbenic omogoči vnos stvari, s katerimi razpolaga opazovana oseba, na območje pogodbenic in iznos s tega območja v drugo državo ter prevoz čez območje pogodbenic z namenom odkrivanja kaznivih dejanj in identifikacije čim širšega kroga oseb, udeleženih pri storitvi kaznivega dejanja. 2. Zaprosilo za kontrolirano pošiljko, poslano centralnim službam za stike, poleg podatkov iz prvega odstavka 4. člena tega sporazuma vsebuje tudi podatke o: a) vsebini pošiljke, predvideni poti in času trajanja ter načinu prevoza, identifikaciji prevoznega sredstva, b) načinu spremstva, c) tehničnih sredstvih, ki bodo v uporabi, d) številu sodelujočih v spremstvu iz pogodbenice prosilke, e) načinu vzdrževanja stikov med udeleženci kontrolirane pošiljke, f) okoliščinah predaje in prevzema pošiljke, g) ukrepih ob prijetju, h) ukrepih ob nepričakovanih okoliščinah. 3. Če bi zamuda povzročila tveganje ali ogrozila interese zatiranja kriminalitete, lahko pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenice pošljejo ali sprejmejo zaprosilo za kontrolirano pošiljko tudi neposredno. Zaprosilo je treba nato nemudoma poslati centralni službi za stike pogodbenic. Zaprosilu je treba priložiti dokumente, ki potrjujejo kontrolirano pošiljko. 4. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje se vsakokrat dogovorijo o datumu in načinu izvedbe kontrolirane pošiljke ter o stopnji svojega sodelovanja. Pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice lahko omeji ali odkloni kontrolirano pošiljko, če pomeni nesprejemljivo tveganje za udeležene osebe oziroma splošno varnost. 5. Ukaze v zvezi s kontrolirano pošiljko odreja pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. O identiteti osebe, ki odreja ukaze, je treba obvestiti pogodbenico prosilko. Kontrolirana pošiljka se izvaja na način, da jo je mogoče vsak čas prestreči. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke lahko spremljajo pošiljko tudi po prevzemu, uradnih pooblastil pa ne smejo izvajati. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke morajo pri tem ravnati v skladu s tem členom in zakoni ter drugimi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice ter navodili vodje pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. 6. Pogodbenici zagotavljata izvedbo kontrolirane pošiljke tudi iz tretje v nadaljnjo državo. V tem primeru za predhodno soglasje teh držav poskrbi pogodbenica prosilka in o tem obvesti zaprošeno pogodbenico. 7. Udeležba tajnega delavca v spremstvu kontrolirane pošiljke je mogoča samo z dovoljenjem pravosodnega organa pogodbenice, ki uporablja tajnega delavca.

1. Pogodbenici na podlagi zaprosila, poslanega centralnim službam za stike, vsaka na svojem državnem območju dovolita delovanje tajnih delavcev pogodbenice prosilke, če je to potrebno zaradi uspešnega odkritja kaznivega dejanja, za katero se izdaja evropski nalog za prijetje in je bilo storjeno ali je v pripravi na območju pogodbenice prosilke, če odkritje kaznivega dejanja ni mogoče brez tajnega delavca ali je to bistveno oteženo. Na zaprosilo pogodbenice prosilke je mogoče uporabiti tajnega delavca zaprošene pogodbenice na njenem območju. 2. Tajni delavec iz tega sporazuma je uradnik poklicne sestave pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje za zatiranje kriminalitete, ki deluje tajno z namenom zbiranja prikritih informacij. 3. Če je za uporabo tajnega delavca potrebno dovoljenje pravosodnih organov pogodbenic, je tajnega delavca mogoče uporabiti samo po pridobitvi dovoljenja. Soglasje vsakokrat velja za celotno državno območje pogodbenice. 4. Zaprosilo za uporabo tajnega delavca vsebuje poleg podatkov iz prvega odstavka 4. člena tega sporazuma še: a) čas trajanja uporabe tajnega delavca, b) pogoje uporabe tajnega delavca, c) pravice in dolžnosti tajnega delavca, d) ukrepe, če je razkrita identiteta tajnega delavca, e) navodila o pravilih kazenske odgovornosti ter odgovornosti tajnega delavca za povzročeno škodo pri delovanju. 5. Uporaba tajnega delavca se vedno omeji na posamičen primer in traja določen čas, vendar največ šest mesecev. Podaljša se lahko največ za dve leti. Uporabo tajnega delavca pripravijo pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic usklajeno. Tajni delavec sme svojo dejavnost začeti po posebnem dogovoru organov za sodelovanje in pridobitvi dovoljenja iz tretjega odstavka. Ta dogovor mora vsebovati tudi podatke iz četrtega in enajstega odstavka. 6. Tajnega delavca usmerja pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke, če opravlja svoje delo na območju druge pogodbenice po nalogu in na zaprosilo pogodbenice prosilke. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic se lahko dogovorijo, da tajni delavec, ki ga je dala na voljo zaprošena pogodbenica, ukrepa po nalogu in navodilih pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke na območju zaprošene pogodbenice. Če je utemeljeno, se lahko pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic dogovorijo tudi drugače, kot je navedeno. 7. Na zaprosilo pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice se delovanje tajnega delavca nemudoma prekine. 8. V primeru iz šestega odstavka pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice ugotovi, ali je uporaba tajnega delavca potrebna, in določi pogoje za njegovo uporabo ter uporabo informacij, pridobljenih med preiskavo. O tem je treba obvestiti pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke. 9. Zaprošena pogodbenica lahko ponudi kadrovsko, organizacijsko in tehnično pomoč za dejavnost tajnega delavca. Pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice mora storiti vse za varnost tajnega delavca pogodbenice prosilke. 10. Po koncu uporabe tajnega delavca se o rezultatih uporabe nemudoma v pisni obliki obvesti pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. 11. Za dejavnost tajnega delavca se uporabljajo notranji zakoni in drugi predpisi zaprošene pogodbenice pod pogojem, da niso v nasprotju z zakoni in drugimi predpisi pogodbenice prosilke.

Napoteni član pogodbenice prosilke v skupni kriminalistični preiskovalni skupini ne sme samostojno izvajati pooblastil na območju zaprošene pogodbenice. 6. Član pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke, napoten v skupno kriminalistično preiskovalno skupino, lahko izroči članom skupne kriminalistične preiskovalne skupine iz zaprošene pogodbenice vse netajne podatke in informacije, ki jih ima, v enakih primerih in pod enakimi pogoji kot svojemu pooblaščenemu organu za sodelovanje. 7. Vodja službe, ki je ustanovila skupno kriminalistično preiskovalno skupino, dovoli, da ima napoteni član druge pogodbenice na razpolago tajne podatke, ki so jih kot take določili pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje. Za dajanje podatkov, ki so jih določili organi, ki niso udeleženi pri sodelovanju, je treba pridobiti dovoljenje, kot določajo notranji zakoni in drugi predpisi pogodbenic. 8. Podatki ali informacije, ki so na razpolago skupni kriminalistični preiskovalni skupini, se lahko uporabijo izključno za: a) preiskovanje tistega kaznivega dejanja, za katero je bila skupna kriminalistična preiskovalna skupina ustanovljena; b) odkrivanje in preiskovanje drugih kaznivih dejanj s predhodnim soglasjem pogodbenice, ki je podatek ali informacijo dala; c) preprečevanje kaznivih dejanj, ki neposredno in močno ogrožajo javno varnost, s predhodnim soglasjem pogodbenice, ki pošilja podatke in informacije, pa tudi v kazenskem postopku, ki je bil uveden zaradi teh kaznivih dejanj. 9. Napoteni član pooblaščenega organa pogodbenice prosilke, ki sodeluje v skupni kriminalistični preiskovalni skupini, ki deluje na območju zaprošene pogodbenice, lahko uporabi drugo osebo, ki sodeluje s pooblaščenim organom za sodelovanje njegove države. 10. Pogodbenici se zavezujeta, da bosta sodelujočo osebo iz devetega odstavka oziroma podatek, ki ga zagotovi, zaščitili vsaj tako, kot to predvidevajo zakoni in drugi predpisi njunih držav za zaščito sodelavcev, ki sodelujejo z organi za zatiranje kriminalitete, ter podatkov, ki jih te osebe pošiljajo.

1. Pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic lahko pri preiskovanju kriminalitete v skladu z zaprosilom, poslanim prek centralnih služb za stike, ter v skladu z notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi svojih držav prikrito zbirajo informacije in se o ugotovitvah zbiranja medsebojno obveščajo. 2. Zaprosilo, ki se nanaša na prikrito zbiranje informacij, mora vsebovati poleg navedenega v prvem odstavku 4. člena tega sporazuma, še: a) navedbo sredstva ali načina; b) čas trajanja tajnega ukrepa; c) podatke, ki bodo zapisani in poslani; d) način pošiljanja podatkov; e) način zagotavljanja pomoči pri morebitnem tajnem zbiranju informacij v drugi državi; f) kopijo dovoljenja organa pristojnega za prikrito zbiranje podatkov v zvezi z odkrivanjem kaznivega dejanja, ki poteka v državi pogodbenici prosilki. 3. Če je za začetek reševanja zaprosila, ki se nanaša na prikrito zbiranje podatkov, potrebno dovoljenje pravosodnih organov v skladu z notranjimi zakoni in predpisi pogodbenic, je treba kopijo dovoljenja poslati zaprošeni pogodbenici. Če za reševanje zaprosila tako dovoljenje ni potrebno, pogodbenica prosilka o tem v zaprosilu obvesti centralno službo za stike zaprošene pogodbenice. Pooblaščeni organ za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice začne reševati zaprosilo v skladu z notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi svoje države in po pridobitvi dovoljenja svojega pravosodnega organa, če je to potrebno. 4. Pogodbenici se zavezujeta, da osebi, ki sodeluje z organi za zatiranje kriminalitete, oziroma za podatek, ki ga pošilja, zagotovita vsaj tako zaščito, kot jo določajo zakoni in drugi predpisi njunih držav za osebe, ki sodelujejo z organi za zatiranje kriminalitete, ter podatke, ki so jih priskrbeli.

1. Pogodbenica lahko z odobritvijo centralne službe za stike druge pogodbenice za določen čas napoti uradnike za zvezo k policijskim in drugim organom za zatiranje kriminalitete druge pogodbenice. 2. Namen napotitve uradnikov za zvezo je pospešitev sodelovanja na podlagi tega sporazuma med pogodbenicama ter sprotno zagotavljanje pomoči pri: a) izmenjavi informacij za preprečevanje in zatiranje kaznivih dejanj; b) izpolnjevanju zaprosil v zvezi s kaznivimi dejanji; c) sodelovanju v zvezi z nadzorom zunanjih meja Evropske unije in izvajanju sporazumov o ponovnem prevzemu oseb; d) pošiljanje informacij, potrebnih za izvajanje nalog organov, pristojnih za odpravljanje nevarnosti, ki ogrožajo javni red. 3. Uradniki za zvezo svetujejo in pomagajo organom za zatiranje kriminalitete, niso pa pooblaščeni za samostojno izvajanje ukrepov za njeno preprečevanje in zatiranje. 4. Uradnik za zvezo opravlja naloge na podlagi navodil pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice, ki napoti uradnika za zvezo, ter v skladu z dogovorom s pooblaščenim organom za sodelovanje pogodbenice, ki uradnika sprejme. Uradnik za zvezo o svoji dejavnosti redno obvešča centralno službo za stike pogodbenice, ki uradnika sprejme. 5. Pristojni ministri pogodbenic se lahko dogovorijo, da uradnik za zvezo posamezne pogodbenice, ki deluje v tretji državi, zastopa interese druge pogodbenice v tej tretji državi za izvajanje tega sporazuma. 6. Pristojni ministri pogodbenic se dogovorijo o podrobnih pogojih delovanja uradnika za zvezo.

Uradnike, ki delajo v skupnih kontaktnih službah, vodijo njihovi nacionalni organi. 5. Pogodbenici se o krajih ustanovitve skupnih kontaktnih služb, pogojih ustanovitve, načinu sodelovanja in stroških dogovorita v posebni mednarodni pogodbi. 6. Pogodbenici se lahko dogovorita, da pri delu v skupnih kontaktnih službah sodeluje tudi uradnik organa za zatiranje kriminalitete tretje države.

1. Zaradi zagotovitve javne varnosti in javnega reda, zatiranja kaznivih dejanj ter nadzora skupne državne meje lahko pooblaščeni organi za sodelovanje pogodbenic v oddaljenosti do deset kilometrov od mejne črte v notranjost državnega območja pogodbenic izvajajo skupno patruljiranje. V to območje spada naselje znotraj teh desetih kilometrov, in sicer do svoje upravne meje, tudi če presega to razdaljo. 2. Pri skupnem patruljiranju so tudi uradniki pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje druge pogodbenice pooblaščeni, da ugotavljajo istovetnost oseb in jih, če se skušajo izogniti preverjanju, primejo skladno s svojimi notranjimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi. 3. Samo uradniki pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje tiste pogodbenice, na katere državnem območju se izvaja skupno patruljiranje, so pooblaščeni, da izvajajo druge ukrepe in uporabljajo prisilna sredstva. 4.

Centralni službi za stike pogodbenic si vzajemno pošljeta vzorčne izvode prirejenih listin.

1. Če ta sporazum ne ureja drugače, je uradnik pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje pogodbenice prosilke na območju zaprošene pogodbenice upravičen: a) nositi uniformo; b) storilca, ki ga je zalotil med storitvijo kaznivega dejanja ali je poskušal pobegniti, prijeti in pridržati, vendar ga mora nemudoma predati pristojnemu krajevnemu pooblaščenemu organu za sodelovanje zaprošene pogodbenice. 2. Uradnik pooblaščenega organa pogodbenice prosilke na območju zaprošene pogodbenice pri opravljanju svojih nalog iz tega sporazuma ter pri vstopu in izstopu lahko nosi svoje službeno orožje in potrebno službeno opremo. 3.

Uradniki pooblaščenega organa za sodelovanje, ki opravljajo naloge po tem sporazumu na območju druge pogodbenice, se zaradi kaznivih dejanj, ki so jih storili ali so bila storjena zoper njih, obravnavajo enako kot uradniki pogodbenice, na območju katere delujejo.

1. Ko uradnik pogodbenice opravlja svoje naloge na območju druge pogodbenice v skladu s tem sporazumom, je pogodbenica pošiljateljica odgovorna za škodo, ki jo je povzročil med svojim delovanjem, v skladu z zakoni in drugimi predpisi pogodbenice, na območju katere je bila povzročena škoda. 2.

Elektronsko pošiljanje podatkov se samodejno evidentira. Evidence se hranijo najmanj pet let, evidenca o poslanih občutljivih podatkih se hrani toliko časa, kot določajo notranji zakoni in drugi predpisi, ki urejajo te podatke. Podatki iz evidence se lahko uporabljajo izključno za preverjanje upoštevanja pravil, ki se nanašajo na varstvo podatkov.

Prejemnica se mora posvetovati s pošiljateljico o tem, ali lahko obvesti posameznika, na katerega se nanašajo osebni podatki, o njegovih osebnih podatkih, ki so v evidenci, in o namenu njihove uporabe. Prejemnica se v tej zadevi ravna po navodilih pošiljateljice.

Following the notification referred to in paragraphs

(7)and

In this case the competent authorised co-operating authorities of the requested Contracting Party shall be notified immediately upon crossing the state border. The request shall be sent subsequently but without delay to the central contact point of the requested Contracting Party.

The authorised co-operating authority of the requesting Contracting Party may, without prior authorisation of the other Contracting Party, continue the pursuit in the territory of the requested Contracting Party if the person concerned committed or attempted to commit, in the territory of the requesting Contracting Party, a criminal act which serves as the basis for issuing the European arrest warrant and: a) was caught in the act or b) escaped from detention, provisional custody or while serving a sentence involving deprivation of liberty and if the delay caused by notifying the authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party would render the arrest of the perpetrator substantially more difficult or severely jeopardise the interests of crime suppression and it is probable that the authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party would not be able to take over the pursuit in time. 2. In the cases referred to in Paragraph (1), the competent authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party shall be notified as soon as possible, but not later than at the time of crossing the state border. 3.

If no request to cease the hot pursuit is made and if the authorised co-operating authority is unable to intervene quickly enough, the pursuing officers of the requesting Contracting Party may detain the person pursued on the spot. The competent authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party shall be immediately notified of this action. 7. The pursuit may be carried out in the entire territory of the Contracting Parties without limits in time. 8.

The authorised co-operating authorities shall agree on the date and modus operandi of the controlled delivery and the extent of their involvement on each occasion. The authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party may restrict or refuse controlled delivery if it could endanger the persons participating in it or public security to an unacceptable extent. 5. The authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party shall be in command of the controlled delivery; the requesting Contracting Party shall be informed of the person in charge. The controlled delivery shall be carried out in a manner that will allow easy interception at any time.

In the course of this, the authorised co-operating authority of the requesting Contracting Party shall act in accordance with the provisions of this Article, the laws and regulations of the requested Contracting Party and the instructions of the person in charge of the authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party. 6. The Contracting Parties shall also enable the execution of controlled deliveries starting out from a third country to a further country. In this case, the requesting Contracting Party shall obtain the prior authorisation of the states concerned, of which the requested Contracting Party shall be notified. 7. The participation of an undercover agent in the controlled delivery is possible only with the authorisation of the judicial authorities of the Contracting Party which is using the undercover agent. 1. Based on the request submitted to the central contact point, either Party shall allow the operation of undercover agents of the requesting Party in its national territory if this is necessary for the successful detection of a criminal act, which serves as a basis for the issuing of the European arrest warrant and has been committed or the preparations thereof have taken place in the territory of the requesting Contracting Party, provided that the detection of the criminal act would not be possible or would be substantially more difficult without the use of the undercover agent. At the request of the requesting Contracting Party, it shall be possible to use the undercover agent of the requested Contracting Party in its territory. 2. For the purposes of this Agreement, an undercover agent is a member of the regular staff of the authorised co-operating authority performing tasks of criminal investigation, acting under cover to gather intelligence information. 3.

The authorisation shall always cover the entire national territory of the Contracting Party concerned. 4. The request to use an undercover agent shall include, in addition to the data stipulated in Article 4 of this Agreement: a) the duration of the use of the undercover agent; b) the conditions of the use of the undercover agent; c) the rights and duties of the undercover agent; d) the measures to be taken in case the identity of the undercover agent has been disclosed; e) information concerning the relevant provisions of legal regulations specifying the criminal liability and civil liability of the undercover agent for damage caused within his scope of operation. 5.

Activities for the use of the undercover agent shall be co-ordinated by the authorised co-operating authorities of the Contracting Parties. The undercover agent may commence his activities following the ad hoc arrangement between the authorised co-operating authorities and after obtaining the authorisation according to Paragraph

(3)hereof. This arrangement shall contain the information set forth in Paragraphs

(4)and (11). 6. When operating in the territory of the other Contracting Party on assignment and in response to the request of the requesting Contracting Party, the undercover agent shall be instructed by the authorised co-operating authority of the requesting Contracting Party. The authorised co-operating authorities of the Contracting Parties may also agree that the undercover agent of the requested Contracting Party take action on assignment and under the instructions of the authorised co-operating authority of the requesting Contracting Party in the territory of the requested Contracting Party. In justified cases, the authorised co-operating authorities of the Contracting Parties may also make different arrangements. 7. The activities of the undercover agent shall be immediately suspended if so requested by the authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party. 8. In the case according to the second sentence of Paragraph (6), the need to use an undercover agent, the conditions of use and the use made of information acquired through the investigation shall be determined by the authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party. The authorised co-operating authority of the requesting Contracting Party shall be notified of this. 9. The requested Contracting Party may provide human resources as well as organisational and technical assistance for the activities of the undercover agent. The authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party shall do whatever is necessary to ensure the safety of the undercover agent of the requesting Contracting Party. 10. The authorised co-operating authority of the requested Contracting Party shall be notified in writing of the results achieved through the use of the undercover agent. 11. The use of the undercover agent shall be subject to the national laws and regulations of the requested Contracting Party provided that they do not conflict with the laws and regulations of the requesting Contracting Party. 1. In the course of criminal proceedings, the Contracting Parties may request via their authorised co-operating authorities that witnesses, victims and suspects and, in view of them, other persons under protection (hereinafter the persons concerned) be transferred from the territory of one Contracting Party to the territory of another Contracting Party and that they be granted protection thereafter. This procedure must not obstruct the criminal proceedings in the territories of the Contracting Parties. 2. In addition to the data specified in Article 4

(1)of this Agreement, the request for handing over or taking over protection shall include: a) request for confidentiality; b) the status of the persons concerned in the criminal proceedings; c) information concerning the threat to the person and its severity; d) the reasons for moving the person concerned to the territory of the requested Contracting Party; e) the recommended form and level of protection; f) the necessary duration of stay in the territory of the requested Contracting Party and the possibility of extension. 3.

The person concerned shall comply with the laws and regulations of the requested Contracting Party. If the person concerned violates the laws and regulations of the requested Contracting Party or fails to respect the rules of behaviour determined specifically for him, the authority of the requested Contracting Party in charge of protection shall immediately inform its counterpart at the requesting Contracting Party. 8. In the event of an act of the person concerned that would unjustifiably and severely jeopardise the staff members of the requested Contracting Party performing protection, this authority of the requested Contracting Party shall immediately initiate the return of the person concerned and its counterpart at the requesting Contracting Party shall comply with this initiative. 9. The competent authorised co-operating authorities for the implementation of this Article shall be: a) for the Slovenian Contracting Party: – Ministry of the Interior, Police, General Police Directorate; b) for the Hungarian Contracting Party: – National Police Headquarters. 1. In order to successfully detect criminal acts referred to in Article 1

(1)of this Agreement, joint crime detection teams may be set up via the central contact points of the Contracting Parties, in accordance with their national laws and regulations, by ad hoc arrangement, particularly if the detection of a criminal act extending to the territories of several EU Member States is particularly complicated or requires co-ordination. 2.
