EU Charter of Fundamental Rights

Artigo 48.o - Presunção de inocência e direitos de defesa

Artigo 48.o - Presunção de inocência e direitos de defesa

1. Todo o arguido se presume inocente enquanto não tiver sido legalmente provada a sua culpa. 2. É garantido a todo o arguido o respeito dos direitos de defesa.

    • Text:

      O artigo 48.o é idêntico aos n.os 2 e 3 do artigo 6.o da CEDH, que têm a seguinte redacção:

      `2. Qualquer pessoa acusada de uma infracção presume-se inocente enquanto a sua culpabilidade não tiver sido legalmente provada.

      3. O acusado tem, como mínimo, os seguintes direitos:

      a) Ser informado no mais curto prazo, em língua que entenda e de forma minuciosa, da natureza e da causa da acusação contra ele formulada;

      b) Dispor do tempo e dos meios necessários para a preparação da sua defesa;

      c) Defender-se a si próprio ou ter a assistência de um defensor da sua escolha e, se não tiver meios para remunerar um defensor, poder ser assistido gratuitamente por um defensor oficioso, quando os interesses da justiça o exigirem;

      d) Interrogar ou fazer interrogar as testemunhas de acusação e obter a convocação e o interrogatório das testemunhas de defesa nas mesmas condições que as testemunhas de acusação;

      e) Fazer-se assistir gratuitamente por intérprete, se não compreender ou não falar a língua usada no processo.`

      Nos termos do n.o 3 do artigo 52.o, este direito tem um sentido e um âmbito iguais aos do direito garantido pela CEDH.

      Preamble - Explanations relating to the Charter of Fundamental Rights:
      As presentes anotações, inicialmente elaboradas sob a responsabilidade do Praesidium da Convenção que redigiu a Carta dos Direitos Fundamentais da União Europeia, foram actualizadas sob a responsabilidade do Praesidium da Convenção Europeia, à luz das adaptações ao texto (nomeadamente aos artigos 51.o e 52.o) da Carta introduzidas pela Convenção Europeia e da evolução do direito da União. Embora não tenham em si força de lei, constituem um valioso instrumento de interpretação destinado a clarificar as disposições da Carta.
