Section 9 statement (Criminal Justice Act 1967, UK)
писмена изјава из Главе 9 Закона О Кривичном Поступку (Criminal Justice Act 1967, UK)
The first time it's mentioned I would put the whole of
"писмена изјава из Главе 9 Закона О Кривичном Поступку (Criminal Justice Act 1967, UK)"
and after that only
"писмена изјава из Главе 9"
For those using "Section 9 statement" all day long it's obvious where this "section 9" is to be found. But it certainly won't be "obvious" for those reading the translation, unless you make it explicit.
"писмена изјава из Главе 9 Закона О Кривичном Поступку (Criminal Justice Act 1967, UK)"
and after that only
"писмена изјава из Главе 9"

: In British legalese, "section" corresponds to "član" (article) - "If citing a paragraph or subsection as part of a section" https://libguides.bournemouth.ac.uk/c.php?g=471702&p=3226266

: "писана изјава (сведока)" could work, but "Section 9" is **a group of articles** so "члан 9 = article 9" is wrong + (ЗКП УК) is not enough - at least once you have to give the full title of this law in the original language.

: Izgleda da je "section" u UK ipak ono što mi zovemo "član": https://www.law.ox.ac.uk/legal-research-and-mooting-skills-p...
