How Is a Statement Given at the Prosecutor's Office?

In short

The question of how a statement is given at the prosecutor's office describes the account given before the prosecutor in the investigation. It is not a copy of the police record. There is no promise of an outcome. A custody day and a prison term are not frozen in this text. A statement given on a summons and a statement given during custody are not the same envelope.

Identity, capacity, and the charge are read at the start of the session. If these three are not on the record, they are not completed later. The answer to how a statement is given at the prosecutor's office is drawn from which authority kept the record. If the authority is not written, an authority is not invented.

How the record is built in the session

The prosecutor, or the authority they appoint, takes a statement during the investigation. The statement proceeds by identification, the stating of capacity, and a reminder of the charge. The capacities of suspect, witness, and complainant are not written in each other's place. Capacity is read from the service of the summons or from the heading of the record. If the two papers conflict, both are stated and one is not deleted. If the right to silence was reminded, the reminder is looked for on the record. If the reminder line is absent, a reminder is not written as if it were there.

If questions and answers do not stand on the same line, they are paired. If there is no question, it may remain unclear which subject the answer relates to. The uncertainty is not closed as a result against the person. A result is not built in this text. A signature placed without the record being read does not by itself prove that the content is correct. If a correction was asked for, the correction should be entered on the record. If it was not entered, it is not treated as entered. An oral sentence "I corrected it" does not stand in for the line.

A police statement is not the prosecutor's office

A police statement may be the early face of the investigation. A statement to the prosecutor is a separate record at the prosecutor's layer. The first paper is not crushed as a draft of the second session. If there is a conflict, the two documents are set side by side. Where each was kept is drawn from the paper's own heading. If there is no heading, a place is not invented. Having stayed silent at the police does not by itself decide silence or speech at the prosecutor's office. Each session is in its own record.

Custody is not a condition of every statement to the prosecutor. A statement given on a summons may also be taken without a custody record. If there is custody, it is not completed by writing a number of days. If the day is not in the file, it is not here either. A prison term is not written either. The statement is not a judgment of conviction. Even if the record was signed, the judgment is read from the court's decision. If there is no decision, there is no judgment. Preparation before the statement is not the session itself. Preparation does not stand in for the statement.

A signature does not prove the content

Not every page of the record may be initialled. A missing page is stated separately. A missing page does not by itself bring the whole statement down. Whether it does is read together with the other documents in the file. If what was asked of the person and what entered the record differ, the difference is written. If it is not clear by whose hand a note added later was written, an author is not invented. If counsel was requested, it is looked for whether the request entered the record. If the request line is absent, counsel is not treated as having come. If their coming is written on another document, that document also stands, and its conflict with the record is not closed.

If a second statement was taken, the second record does not erase the first. The two records are two documents. One is not held superior to the other by itself. The service of the summons shows which prosecutor's office invited the person. If the unit on the record is written differently, both are stated. If service is incomplete, the gap is not put in place of the content of the statement. A complaint given by petition is separate from the statement record. A complaint petition is not read as a statement to the prosecutor.

The Çankaya address does not choose the prosecutor's office

An Ankara lawyer does not write the Çankaya address of the office in place of the prosecutor's office. The competent authority is read from the unit on the service and on the record. The record is not closed so that the statement will pass by itself. The district of the office does not change the prosecutor's office where the statement will be taken. A custody day and a prison term are not written for that reason either.

How the record is read

A custody day and a prison term that are not written in the file are not added. The police record is not put in place of the statement to the prosecutor.

Conclusion

The answer to how a statement is given at the prosecutor's office is the record before the prosecutor. It is not a copy of the police statement. A custody day and a prison term are not written. Preparation before the statement is under before the statement, the separation of police and prosecutor is under the difference in statements, counsel is under counsel at the prosecutor's office, and the record itself is under the statement record. The frame is on the criminal law page. The basis is in the text of the Criminal Procedure Code No. 5271.

Frequently asked questions

Is it the same record as the police statement?

It is not. The police record is not a draft of the prosecutor's session. The two documents are read side by side.

Are the summons and the statement the same thing?

No. The summons is the service by which the person is invited to the prosecutor's office. The statement is the account given in that session. If there is no service, the manner of coming is not invented.

Is defence counsel spoken of in this session?

Counsel is read by whether they appear on the record. A custody day and a prison term are not written in this text.
