Citizens can directly contribute to prosecutors’ vetting by providing evidence of integrity concerns

Published

Citizens can play a direct role in verifying prosecutors' integrity by providing information about those undergoing the vetting process. The evaluation commission is encouraging the public to report specific cases of conflicts of interest, ethical misconduct, or inconsistencies in asset declarations.

Ultimately, volunteers may submit information only regarding the following areas:

  • conflicts of interest or incompatibilities;

  • violations of professional ethics and conduct standards;

  • relevant data concerning income, assets, expenses, or transactions;

  • discrepancies or omissions in declarations of assets and personal interests;

  • other relevant facts that can be verified.

The institution specifies that any submissions must be based on concrete facts, indicate the relevant time period (as far as possible), and be accompanied by documents or other evidence that allows for their verification.

Representatives of the Commission emphasize that only verifiable information is encouraged—not accusations based on rumors or assumptions.

Data received from the public will supplement the information the Commission already collects from state authorities, open sources, legal entities, civil society organizations, or the media.

The list of prosecutors subject to evaluation is available on the official website of the Prosecutor Evaluation Commission.

Submissions can be made via the online form found on the "Submit a Report" page, or by email at [email protected].
