About this statute

Avsnittet gäller förundersökningsprinciper och rättigheter för dem som deltar i en förundersökning. A party has no right to receive certain investigation information, and that right may also be withheld when needed to protect a very important public or private interest. A person may not be heard as a witness in a preliminary investigation if they could not testify in court about the crime under investigation. Witnesses must tell what they know about the investigated matter and may have to produce relevant documents or evidence material; some refusal-to-testify rules still apply, with listed exceptions. A court must investigate the reason for a witness’s refusal on the investigation leader’s request, and the witness hearing must be held in court unless there is a lawful reason for refusal.
