When a person commits a crime, it is the right of the police and the prosecutor's office to investigate and prove him and to court to judge him for the crime. In rapid production, this is exactly what happens, but in a shorter time. Rapid production can be conducted against a person under several hypotheses: If captured at or shortly after the crime was committed (such as being captured by police); If there are obvious signs of a crime on his body or clothing; If he / she appears personally to the police authorities in the district administration, the investigating body or the prosecutor and acknowledges what he / she has done; If an eyewitness indicates him as the perpetrator of the crime (if there is a witness to testify). Except in these cases, speedy proceedings may also be conducted at the discretion of the prosecutor if the offense committed by a person is punishable by imprisonment of up to 3 years or other less severe punishment. For example, if by inadvertent (ie not intentionally) a person causes average bodily injury (teeth whitening, and then makes speech difficult or breaks the jaw) of another person, the prosecutor may order a speedy proceeding for the crime committed, since the punishment for such a crime is up to 1 year in prison.
The most important of the speedy proceedings is that it is conducted in a shorter timeframe than the cases that are heard in the ordinary course (this is the order in which a person is prosecuted and tried in principle if the conditions for being sued are not available rapid production). The investigation of the crime committed by a person must be carried out within 7 days of being indicted. If the expedited procedure is ordered by the prosecutor, the investigation must be conducted within 14 days.
Rapid proceedings are instituted when an investigative body (investigating police officer, investigator, prosecutor) draws up an act for the first action in the investigation. For example, as soon as the police inspect the crime scene and draw up a report on it, speedy proceedings are initiated. The crime is believed to have been committed and the individual is considered as the accused. Once the investigation is complete, it must be presented to the accused. This means presenting all the collected evidence in the case of the respective accused in order to familiarize himself with them. If there is a victim of the crime, the investigation is not presented to him.
