According to Yance, the handover of the investigation from the National Police to the Attorney General’s Office is considered unusual, especially because Febrie has never been summoned and questioned as a suspect.
He suspects that there were unprocedural actions which could actually open up the opportunity for the suspect’s determination to be canceled through pre-trial.
Yance said that in the Criminal Procedure Code, the known process is delegating cases after the suspect has been questioned and the evidence is deemed sufficient.
If this process is not fulfilled, then the case could be considered weak in procedural law.
In your opinion, procedural irregularities like this could be a serious loophole in pretrial proceedings?
Or can the legal process continue as long as the evidence in the case is strong?
