The author first considers counter-terrorismmeasures in investigation of crimes of terrorism. In the name ofprotecting states and citizens, “war on terrorism” in some countries legitimized many actions directed towards the suppression ofany potential danger from terrorism.

Another issue that is subject of disscusion in thispaper is treatment of persons convicted for terrorism. There aretwo dimensions of that treatment. On the one side is penintentiarytreatment ie. the process which take place in prisons and on theother side we can talk about post-penal treatment of convicts forterrorism.
