In its 2024 annual report, SPAK says that prosecutors have been pressured by organized crime and political and media actors.
According to SPAK, the pressure undermines the independence of this institution and the effectiveness of investigations.
For this reason, SPAK emphasizes that in order to guarantee the independence of the institution, as well as support for prosecutors in sensitive matters, a more coordinated and timely response is needed from all institutions, which have the responsibility of protecting the integrity of SPAK.
"External pressure on SPAK from organized crime, political and media actors, which undermines its constitutional independence and effectiveness in investigations. External interventions also endanger the integrity of prosecutors and the investigative process. To guarantee the independence of SPAK, as well as support for prosecutors in sensitive cases, a more coordinated and timely response is needed from all institutions, which have the responsibility of protecting the integrity of SPAK," the SPAK annual report states.
SPAK also speaks about the continued lack of clear legal definition regarding the status of special prosecutors after the end of their mandate.
"SPAK finds that this issue has not yet been addressed and emphasizes that the lack of a clear definition of this status could undermine the continued maintenance of high professional standards of investigation, required by the public, the Parliament, the Council of Ministers and international institutions. As highlighted in the SPAK annual report for 2023, the lack of a clear status of special prosecutors would also undermine the continuity of important investigations conducted by SPAK," the report states.
