The Prosecutor General’s Office (PGO) has officially registered five criminal cases concerning the alleged use of force by SBU officers against employees of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NAB, in the context of law enforcement operations. The PGO, which is responsible for overseeing the integrity of law enforcement, has stated that the incidents involve potential violations of legal procedures during targeted searches. These cases have been consolidated and forwarded to the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI), which is tasked with handling complex legal inquiries and investigations.
The move has sparked discussions about the internal dynamics between different intelligence and law enforcement agencies in the country. The SBI’s involvement suggests that the allegations are being taken seriously, and that a thorough examination of all relevant evidence will be conducted. The National Anti-Corruption Bureau has not commented on the specific incidents, but the PGO has emphasized that any breach of legal protocol will be investigated without political bias. The situation raises questions about the operational conduct of intelligence agencies and the mechanisms in place for holding law enforcement accountable for misconduct.
