The electronic case becomes mandatory for prosecutors as of July 1, 2017, based on the E-Case automated information system. Under an order made by the prosecutor general, all the prosecutors, their consultants and the specialists of prosecution bodies will daily introduce information about the actions taken within criminal cases in the system, IPN has learned from the Prosecutor General’s Office.

“E-Case features ensure different levels of secured access to data and will enable prosecutors to more efficiently handle criminal cases and to generate accurate statistics and reports through the automation of internal procedures and processes. The software covers all stages of criminal investigation conducted or supervised by the prosecutor and will ensure access to real-time data, reducing thus delays in taking decisions related to the criminal case. Also, there will be ensured a more transparent decision-making process within the prosecution service,” said Prosecutor General Eduard Harunjen.

The system will be integrated with modules of the information systems of the Ministry of the Interior, National Anticorruption Center, Customs Service, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Information and Communication Technology and other central public authorities.

The system unifies data received from different law enforcement agencies and ensures the informational interaction of the prosecution bodies, bodies of the Prosecutor’s Office, courts of law and other bodies.

The instrument was worked out by the Estonian company Andmevara, which develops informational solutions for public institutions of different levels. The development and implementation of the system were estimated at US$95,000. E-Case was developed in the framework of the project “Support to Justice Sector Reform” that is implemented by the United Nations Development Program.
