The use of coercive means that may cause lasting health consequences in peacetime circumstances constitutes a serious violation of these norms.

Article 25 of the Constitution of Serbia, which guarantees the protection of the physical and psychological integrity of citizens, i.e. prohibits torture, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
