This paper discusses the concept of damaged subject, in context of the criminal proceedings, and in corelation to the concept of victim, in a much wider context. Some of the basic rights that belong to the damaged subject during the criminal proceedings are also discussed, along with obligations which damaged subject is required to abide by. Through positive legal provisions applicable in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, not neglecting the views of relevant theorists of law, this paper attempts to closely determine the position of the damaged subjecr, as well as to suggest some possibilities resulting in its improvement.
