One of the six important laws that need to be approved by the end of
September regards the organization and functionality of three
institutions that will be established for fighting the organized crime
and corruption in its highest levels.

But the government and the opposition don’t have a consensual stance yet. The Democratic Party considers the law as anti-constitutional for its three key points, which the DP says that allow the government to intervene and take under control the Special Courts and Anti-Corruption Special Prosecution.

The DP says that the law provision for involving people appointed by the State police at the Special Investigative Unit creates a direct or indirect dependence from the government.

The government opposes the power that, they claim, this law gives to the government for intervening and stopping the appointing of any Prosecutor, Judge, investigator of other employee of the Prosecution and Special Court.

In their third point, the opposition are against the government surveillance of telecommunication and financial revenues of judges, prosecutors and investigators tasked with the fight against corruption and organized crime.

To avoid any dependence from the government, Oerd Bylykbashi handed over 22 amendments at the Justice Commission, but it is unclear if the majority and foreign experts will admit any of them.
