About this statute

This law governs investigation, prosecution, trial, and execution of penalties for offences provided for by criminal law. Criminal procedure laws apply during investigations, prosecution, in courts, and in organs that execute judgments, unless another law provides otherwise. This article defines key terms used in the Law. A criminal action is brought by the public prosecution, but an aggrieved person may bring it privately in a criminal court. This article lists the grounds on which criminal action ends, and the grounds on which it may also end.
