本文件概述了匈牙利规范警察身份检查的法律的规范，简要阐述了法律允许的这项措施的目的，以及有关的法律的规定是否限制警官决定为此目的拦截哪些人。该文件还介绍了过去五年来关于罗姆人“种族貌相”的两个主要研究项目的方法，并介绍了研究结果。为了评估警察做法的有效性和特定领域的族裔貌相模式，文件分析了基于20 000多份身份证检查表的数据。研究结果表明，警察身份证检查实践中存在明显的种族歧视和极低的有效性。本文还提出了一些建议，以改善目前的法律的框架有关身份证检查。
This paper provides an overview of the Hungarian legal norms regulating police identification (ID) checks, briefly elaborating on the legally permitted aims of the measure and on whether the relevant legal provisions restrict officers’ decisions on whom to stop for this purpose. The paper also describes the methodology of two major research projects on ‘ethnic profiling’ of Roma from the past five years and presents their findings. In order to assess the effectiveness of the police practice and the patterns of ethnic profiling in the particular field, the paper provides an analysis of data based on more than 20,000 ID check forms. The research results show clear ethnic disproportionality and extremely low effectiveness in police ID check practice. The paper also offers some recommendations for the improvement of the present legal framework concerning ID checks.
