The Economic and Financial Criminal Pole for Combating Economic Crimes in the Algerian Code of Criminal Procedure

Abstract

Specialized criminal poles are considered newly established judicial bodies in addition to courts, judicial councils, and the Supreme Court. They embody courts with expanded jurisdiction, which represented the first signs of Algerian criminal policy moving toward the specialization of the judiciary¹, Pursuant to the enactment of Law No. 04-14 dated 10 November 2004, the legislator accordingly established specialized criminal poles, focusing on extending the local jurisdiction of public prosecutors, investigating judges, and courts themselves.
