Prosecutor General's Office considers dismissal of employee in NABU call center fraud case

The Office of the Prosecutor General has stated that they are considering the dismissal of an employee in connection with a call center fraud case. They have emphasized that investigating the possible involvement of one of their employees in illegal activities related to fraudulent call centers is a separate issue from the overnight searches conducted at the Prosecutor General's offices and other PGO employees' offices.

The Prosecutor General's office is unambiguous in its position that using the status of an employee or official capabilities to cover up or facilitate criminal activity is unacceptable and will be punished by law.

Regarding the specific PGO employee involved in the NABU investigation, the decision on dismissal is currently being made. The Prosecutor General's office will provide necessary assistance and information to the investigation, while ensuring that all circumstances relevant to the criminal proceeding are thoroughly checked in accordance with the law.

Internal investigation has been initiated, but the specific allegations against the employee are not confirmed. The conversation cited in the ruling contains no direct evidence that the Prosecutor General gave any instructions or benefits related to the call centers or other illegal activities. The connection between the conversations and possible criminal activity is mostly based on assumptions and does not establish a clear link between the employee's actions and the alleged illegal activities.
