Rikkomismenettelyyn

Rikkomismenettelyyn refers to a legal process in Finland, specifically within the context of the Finnish criminal justice system, that deals with the investigation and prosecution of crimes. The term is derived from the Finnish words "rikkominen," which means "committing a crime," and "menettely," which means "procedure." This process is governed by the Finnish Penal Code and other relevant legislation.

The rikkomismenettelyyn begins with the reporting of a crime to the police. The police then investigate the incident, gather evidence, and determine whether there is sufficient grounds to proceed with a prosecution. If the investigation leads to a decision to prosecute, the case is transferred to the prosecutor's office.

The prosecutor's office reviews the evidence and decides whether to bring charges. If charges are brought, the case is assigned to a court. The court then conducts a trial, where both the prosecution and the defense present their arguments and evidence. The court ultimately decides the guilt or innocence of the defendant and, if guilty, imposes a sentence.

Throughout the rikkomismenettelyyn, the principles of fairness, impartiality, and the presumption of innocence are upheld. The process aims to ensure that justice is served and that the rights of all parties involved are protected.
