The Criminal Assets Recovery Agency of the National Anticorruption Center will manage a common register with generalized information about seized criminal assets. The information about seized, confiscated or recovered criminal assets will be furnished by prosecutors, bailiffs, the State Tax Service and courts of law, IPN reports.

The National Center for Personal Data Protection gave the go-ahead to implement the common register of seized criminal assets.

The creation of such a database is aimed at setting down strict rules for managing the seized criminal assets and at integrating it into the automated information system “Investigation: E-File” of the Prosecutor General’s Office.

Both the technical concept that was approved by Government Decision No. 34/2020 and the database were worked out and implemented with the assistance of Joint EU/CoE Project Controlling Corruption through Law Enforcement and Prevention (CLEP). Earlier, the Agency managed the seized assets through the agency of electronic documents.
