The executive order regarding the duty of the police and prosecutions to provide guidance and information to the victims in criminal cases and to appoint a contact person for the victim issued by the Director of Public Prosecutions requires that in cases of gross violations of the Criminal Code, e.g. cases of violence, where it is expected that the victim will testify during the criminal proceedings, a contact person within the police or prosecution is to be appointed for the victim.

The police are obligated to inform victims of their right to an attorney, the possibility of receiving compensation from the state, the availability of victim's counseling, etc.
