The General's Prosecutor Office of the Republic of Azerbaijan (Azerbaijani: Azərbaycan Respublikası Baş Prokurorluğu) is an independent constitutional agency responsible for managing the criminal investigation and public prosecution in the Republic of Azerbaijan. The powers of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of Azerbaijan are defined in the Constitution 1995, Criminal Procedure Code 2000 and other laws. According to Article 133 of the Constitution 1995, the Prosecutor's Office: Unlike many other jurisdictions, the Prosecutor's Office of Azerbaijan belongs to the Judicial Branch of Power. The Prosecutor’s Office operates as a single centralised body based on the subordination of territorial and specialised prosecutors to the Prosecutor General (PG) of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The PG is appointed and dismissed by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, with the consent of the Milli Majlis (Parliament) of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Apart from the prosecutors and supporting staff, there are also criminal investigators and detectives within the Prosecutor's Office of Azerbaijan. Criminal investigators of the Prosecutor's Office have exclusive jurisdiction over a limited range of serious offences, including crimes against the person, corruption, money laundering, etc. The Anticorruption Directorate (anti-corruption agency) is the only entity of the Prosecutor's Office that employs detectives.
