The book, which emanates out of an EU-fund- ed comparative research and training project is addressed to both law students, judges, police and practitioners and serves as a casebook, combining detailed studies of specific aspects, a comparative perspective, and a selection of Cypriot and European (CJEU, ECtHR) case law.
