For Romy Changcriminal lawyer, the Public ministry must analyze formalize the investigation and go to a preparatory against the president peter castle.

“The time will soon come to decide whether the Attorney General formalizes a preparatory investigation, and for this, it will have to see if the constitutional framework allows it. In order to formalize the preparatory investigation, she first has to ask Congress to lift the president’s immunity. And, with what measure would it go to the preparatory investigation, for example: simple appearance, preventive detention, house arrest, etc. All based on the tools that the law gives you such as obstruction of justice, evidence, flight risk or hindering the investigation. And beware, the recent investigation of personal cover-up, I think there are strong elements for a request for preventive detention against the president to be put together “he indicated.
