ACA H S 5 Introducing General Instruction governing the actions in certain, special types of cases (pursuant to Article 25, paragraph 2 of the Law on Public Prosecution) by the National Public Prosecutor at the proposal of the National Public Prosecutor’s Office professional board. The General Instruction mechanism could be a way to regulate a specific and efficient manner of public prosecutors’ actions on criminal charges filed on grounds of suspicion that any of the criminal offenses referred to in the Chapter of the 15 Criminal Code (Criminal Offenses Against Electoral Rights) have been committed. The binding instructions could provide for urgent treatment of these criminal charges and periodic information to the public about the actions taken, which would contribute to the public gaining trust in the work of public prosecutors in these cases. In addition, it could be provided that the National Public Prosecutor’s Office acts on complaints against decisions to dismiss criminal charges in their professional board capacity. Decisions should be taken without delay within a period shorter than legally required (15 days).
