The sole proceeding, in terms of people being held administratively liable, relies on disclosing and determining all circumstances related to committing the constitutional tort and punishment of a person who committed it. The key function of the proceedings is compensation towards justice and strengthening of legality, as well as commencement of actions of preventive dimension towards the people holding important positions within the country.
