The discussion of the idea to create a commission for reviewing criminal cases investigated by the GKNB over the past five years has become relevant recently. In response to this proposal, the agency's employees noted:
There are clearly established legal procedures.
According to the Constitution of the KR, the foundation of state power is the separation of powers among various bodies.
According to criminal procedural legislation, oversight of the legality of investigations conducted by investigative bodies such as the GKNB and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is carried out by the prosecutor's office, while judicial authority belongs exclusively to the judicial instances.
It is important to note that based on Article 8 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the KR, the review of sentences and other judicial decisions in criminal cases is only possible within the framework provided by the Criminal Procedure Code of the KR and only by the relevant courts, while procedural decisions made by investigators can be reviewed by supervisory bodies.
Thus, the creation of any commission to review criminal cases contradicts constitutional foundations, as legislation prohibits interference in investigative and judicial processes.
Furthermore, in accordance with the President's directive, a large-scale reform is being implemented in the GKNB, covering all aspects of its activities.
The goal of the GKNB KR reform is to adapt the service to modern threats and challenges, improve work in the field of intelligence and counterintelligence, combat terrorism and extremism, eradicate corruption, counter organized crime, and ensure the informational and economic security of the country.
The GKNB continues its activities strictly in accordance with the law, respecting the rights and freedoms of citizens guaranteed by the Constitution.
