AKEL calls on the Prosecutor's Office to give explanations regarding the case concerning the leader of a parliamentary party, while leaving open the possibility of favourable treatment.
In a statement, the party says that "as the publications about the case involving a parliamentary party leader, which has been in the drawers of the Legal Service for two years now, increase, questions about the handling of the General Prosecutor's Office are also increasing".
Although, he adds, the possible commission of serious criminal offences[/B] had been examined[/B] and significant testimonial material had been collected[/B] which led the former C. Prosecutor General to consider lifting the immunity of the mentioned political leader, the present Prosecutor General did nothing further.
"Society will continue to collectively disparage the institutions if it becomes apparent that the Prosecutor General's Office gave preferential treatment to this political leader. The Attorney General's Office must explain its handling of the case," the statement concludes.
