Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: I am an employee of the Commission for Investigation and Public Prosecution, a criminal investigator, and a public prosecutor before the courts. Do the rulings of the judiciary apply to me?
Answer:
A public prosecutor means that you are an agent; it means you are an agent for the state, an agent for the state in prosecuting criminals and those who have committed violations. So you are an agent for the one in authority. There is nothing wrong with this, provided you adhere to justice and truth. There is no harm in that. Yes.
