The paper examines the question of suicide in the light of Polish criminal law. The starting point of discussion is an analysis of actions leading to one depriving oneself of one’s own life which, at the same time, do not pose any harm to third parties. Here, the paper strives to answer the question whether suicide is legal or illegal in view of criminal law, as well as whether state interference with such actions is possible and justified. These questions serve as the background for the core part of the paper, in which justifications for the criminalization of suicidal acts simultaneously being attacks on third parties, i.e. so-called suicide attacks, are sought. The paper sheds light on the latest anti-terrorist laws and formulates conclusions pertaining to its directions of development, particularly in the field of combating suicide terrorist attacks.

The article examines the role of the Internal Security Agency in fighting terrorist threats within he territory of the Republic of Poland. The Internal Security Agency was established by the Act of 24 May 2002 on the Internal Security Agency and the Foreign Intelligence Agency. The Internal Security Agency is one of Poland’s five security services with the broadest remit and responsibilities, some of which — like civilian counterintelligence, fighting terrorism in Poland, counteracting proliferation and protecting non-public information — are the exclusive domain of this institution. The legislator has imposed on the Internal Security Agency the duty to protect internal security and constitutional order of the Republic of Poland. The tasks of the Internal Security Agency also include actions aimed at informing citizens of potential terrorist threats within the territory of the Republic of Poland. In 2010 the Agency — in collaboration with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Administration — launched the antyterroryzm.gov.pl portal, a government website the objective of which is to provide citizens with up-to-date information about how to react to terrorist threats and about the level of these threats in Poland.

In the municipal “Programme of the Security Improvement for the City of Kraków 2018– 2020” one of the main goals was pointed out as “the improvement of the protection of public buildings in Krakow against the terrorist attack”. Antiterroristic prevention of public buildings and public space is a difficult and controversial issue. On the one hand, it is connected with the need of provision a public safety but on the other hand it may affect the protection of freedom and personal rights of citizens. In practice the fortification of public buildings threatens its functionality, in symbolic dimension it undermines the basic principles of democracy. In the article, the author depicts evaluation of different approaches and effects of antiterrorist policies, which may be implemented in order to protect public facilities in Kraków.

W „Programie poprawy bezpieczeństwa dla miasta Krakowa na lata 2018–-2020” jako jeden z celów operacyjnych wymieniono „poprawę stopnia przygotowania obiektów użyteczności publicznej w Krakowie w zakresie przeciwdziałania atakowi terrorystycznemu i na wypadek ataku terrorystycznego”. Problematyka prewencji antyterrorystycznej w odniesieniu do budynków publicznych i przestrzeni miejskiej pozostaje kontrowersyjna, gdyż dotyka z jednej strony kwestii konieczności zapewnienia mieszkańcom odpowiedniego poziomu bezpieczeństwa, a z drugiej – potrzeby zagwarantowania wolności osobistej i poszanowania praw obywatelskich. W wymiarze praktycznym fortyfikacja budynków publicznych zagraża ich funkcjonalności, a w wymiarze symbolicznym jest zaprzeczeniem demokracji. W artykule rozważane są możliwości i ewentualne skutki wprowadzenia w życie przedsięwzięć, które mogą służyć ograniczeniu ryzyka ataków terrorystycznych w przestrzeni publicznej i budynkach użyteczności publicznej w Krakowie.
