The Public Prosecutor Law No. 159 of 1979, published in the Official Gazette, issue 2746 of 17 December 1979, was one of a number of laws enacted under the only partly realised law reform project which emerged from the Legal System Reform Law No. 35 of 1977. This was an attempt to use “legislation . . . in the process of destruction of feudal, tribal and capitalist values which hinder the march of Revolution towards building up the socialist society”.
