The Parliamentary Committee on Legal Policy and State Building on Thursday approved the draft amendments to the Code of Criminal Procedure, which allows law enforcement agencies to carry out a search and seizure without witnesses.
As Turan was told by a parliamentary source, in particular the amendments to the Articles 236.4 and 244.1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure require that from now on, law enforcement officials may conduct a search and seizure without the involvement of witnesses, if the process is taken on the video.
Note that the common practice in recent years was using persons secretly cooperating with the police or other law enforcement agencies as witnesses. Such incidents occurred in particular in matters of youth activists. The lawyers cited evidence for the involvement of the same people as witnesses in several cases that questioned the investigative process itself. -06D--
