Under Article 106 of the UAE Constitution, who heads the Federal Public Prosecution and how is the post filled?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. A Federal Attorney General appointed by federal decree with the approval of the Council of Ministers
- Step 1: Article 106 of the Constitution says there shall be a Federal General Attorney appointed by a federal decree issued with the approval of the Council of Ministers. Answer: A Federal Attorney General appointed by federal decree with the approval of the Council of Ministers. The Federal Attorney General is assisted by a number of public prosecutors, and the Federal Code of Criminal Procedure regulates the powers of the Federal Public Prosecution Office. Why not the others: Election by the Federal National Council, appointment by the Ruler of Dubai and selection by the Chief Justice are not what Article 106 provides.
