Summary/Abstract: The presentation of charges is one of the key stages of criminal prosecution. The right to defense as one of the elements of a fair trial is fully disclosed already at the stage of indictment. Observance of all rights of the accused and timely actions of the defense at this stage are the guarantee of fairness and legality of criminal proceedings as a whole. Not only the procedure of indictment, but also the procedural document itself — the ruling on bringing a person as an accused must meet the requirements of the law. Moldovan legislation does not enshrine the term “standards of defense”. The investigated aspect is analyzed from the point of view of normative definition of the concept of “protection”, “right to protection” both in national and international legislation.
