Human rights have become a common value of the society based on the concept of constitutional order. In the Republic of Slovenia, the human rights are protected by the Constitution and international conventions, which the Republic of Slovenia ratified. The Republic of Slovenia was built on democratic foundations, and gave great emphasis on public participation in the control bodies that interfere with their work in human rights and freedoms. The legislator's intention was to arrange such an oversight proceedings against police officers, which will be decided by the public on the merits of complaints against police officers. This is how the method of implementation of civilian oversight of police conduct was undoubtedly developed to great extent.
This master thesis shows the organization of the police, for this shows some mechanisms of civilian oversight of the police. Valid legal basis for the control of respect for human rights by the police in Slovenia is presented in detail. Above all, we felt it was important to describe and explain the currently valid procedure for dealing with complaints in the first and second stage, and parallel proceedings, when the conditions for resolving complaints under the Act on the duties are not met. Followed by a detailed description of the current complaints procedure, legal problems are presented. Here all other forms of dispute "complaints" over the work of police officers are described. The control and handling of complaints in some foreign countries, and the report of the Ministry of the police on resolving complaints for the years 2010-2013 are also presented.
From the final conclusions of the master's thesis we can conclude that the current system of monitoring and resolving complaints is satisfactory, but it needs some changes.
