Abstract

The Public Prosecution enjoys broad powers and a distinct procedural specificity in prosecuting economic and financial crimes in accordance with the Code of Criminal Procedure 25-14, where the legislator has at times strengthened its role and at other times limited it, seeking through this legislative framework to protect public funds, enhance transparency, and reduce the drain on the national economy by means of mechanisms that combine deterrence with flexibility in procedural handling.
