The scheme for crown witnesses is now open to suspects in criminal cases who want to make a statement. The public prosecutor can then promise to demand a lesser sentence.

Yeşilgöz also said she wants to explore more options for protecting people who are threatened by criminals. According to her, that security is still quite light or very heavy. There should be more levels of protection in between.
