A well-established system of state power at all its levels would not have been so effective if it had not been continuously monitored. One of the controlling bodies is the prosecutor's office, which responds to cases of violation of law and order both on its own initiative and as a result of receiving applications from citizens.
Public prosecutor's oversight of government
Exercising control over the observance of the law by executive authorities, prosecutors have the right not only to monitor the work of state structures, local administrations and other organizations, but also to intervene in it if violations are established. They are identified on the basis of incoming information in the form of complaints from citizens or statistical data.
During the investigation of the current situation, the prosecutor can freely enter any premises subject to inspection, interrogate the responsible officials and citizens, including by calling them for questioning, and upon receipt of positive results, make a decision to start a criminal or administrative process.
Monitoring compliance with the law of investigative and investigative measures
The activities of the police are always accompanied by the discontent of citizens who are denied to initiate criminal proceedings or whose rights have been violated as a result of operational investigative work. The prosecutor is obliged to identify cases of impending or committed crimes, the conduct of investigative measures for which does not satisfy the requirements of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
After receiving a statement from a citizen or finding a discrepancy in the information received from the registration authorities, medical institutions, conducting a routine check on the legality of refusals to initiate criminal cases, prosecutors begin an investigation. They have the right to demand all official documents accompanying the search activity, as well as to cancel illegal acts, remove guilty investigators from work, and return incorrectly formed cases for revision.
