Specialized prosecution office at State Revenue Service could begin work in the fall
"We have agreed [with Attorney General Juris Stukans]
that in order to achieve an effective investigation of financial and tax
crimes, we must have common priorities and a common goal," said the head
of the SRS, adding that efficiency can best be achieved by working together,
including providing an opportunity for prosecutors to conduct interrogations
immediately.
Jaunzeme expressed hope that this autumn the specialized tax
and customs prosecutor's office could start working in the premises of the SRS.
"I would like to hope that by the autumn we are already in the same
premises," said the head of the SRS, adding that there is space available
in the building where the SRS is located.
Stukans previously underlined that the new prosecution
office would be created, using the existing resources of the Prosecutor
General's Office and that it would not require seeking any extra government
funding. The number of prosecutors would not be increased either.
The prosecutor general said that if the experiment proves
successful, he will propose a similar solution for the Corruption Prevention
Bureau (KNAB) as well in order to make it easier for prosecutors to probe
corruption crimes.
