This e-Capsule focuses on Article 48 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (EU) (the Charter), which guarantees the presumption of innocence and the right to a defence. It explores the scope and interpretation of these rights through relevant legal instruments and key judgments from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
