Public Prosecutor's Office

As the investigating and prosecuting authority, the Public Prosecutor's Office in Zug is obligated to initiate and conduct criminal proceedings within its jurisdiction if it becomes aware of criminal offenses or has reasonable grounds to suspect criminal activity.

If the grounds for suspicion become more compelling and concrete during the criminal proceedings, the Public Prosecutor's Office may either issue a penal order or bring charges before the criminal court, depending on the nature and severity of the appropriate penal measure.

However, if the grounds for suspicion cannot be adequately substantiated or corroborated, or if there is no evidence of a criminal offense, the Public Prosecutor's Office will discontinue the criminal proceedings. The same applies if there are procedural obstacles or in other cases specified by law.
