Frequently asked questions

Do I have the right to a lawyer if I am arrested?
Yes. You have the right to legal assistance from the moment of arrest. If you do not appoint a lawyer of your choice, a duty lawyer will be assigned. It is essential to exercise this right before giving a statement.
What is private prosecution?
Private prosecution is the right of the victim or injured party of a crime to appear in the criminal process as a prosecution, alongside the Public Prosecutor, to request the conviction of the responsible party and the corresponding compensation.
Can an economic crime result in imprisonment?
Yes. Many economic crimes, such as asset concealment, punishable insolvency or fraud, carry prison sentences. The severity depends on the amount, intent and circumstances of the case.
