Summary/Abstract: The present article considers the contemporary criminal procedural doctrine treating the presumption of innocence both as a procedural guarantess enjoyed by prosecuted or tried persons, but also as a reflection of the constitutionally protected fundamental right (Art. 23, par. 11 of the Romanian Constitution). Moreover, the article presents other legal dispositions, for example the European legal protection, the Romanian Code of Criminal Procedure and the current juridicial practice.
