| dc.description.abstract | There have been persistent allegations of the violations of rights of criminal suspects on the course of investigation in Ethiopia. PM Abiy Ahmed (PhD) publicly admitted the existence of such problems, and made a pledge that his administration will work to rectify it. One of the means by which such problem can be curbed is by empowering the prosecutorial office to supervise criminal investigation. The FAG is charged with the duty to follow up criminal investigation and ensure its legality, which include ensuring the protection of pretrial rights of criminal suspects. Achieving this legal responsibility requires participating on investigation activities. The practice however shows that the public prosecutors do not participate on the investigation process in majority of cases. There are different underlying causes for this problem. The research finally forwarded recommendations to avert such problems and strengthen the protection scheme of the rights of criminal suspects. | |
