The Supreme Public Prosecutors Office on April 5 announced that public prosecutors electronically recorded the entire interrogation process in about 40 percent of 69 suspects in cases unearthed by the prosecutors.
The electronic recording of the interrogation of mentally disabled suspects and suspects in cases to be handled by lay judge trials is also being expanded.
The office is scheduled to make public in June a detailed report on how public prosecutors have approached this issue. Among prosecutors, opinion is divided over whether the entire interrogation process should be electronically recorded.
