Unlike a defendant, a witness in criminal proceedings can only refuse to give evidence to the investigating authorities under very limited conditions. Recently, witnesses must even attend police hearings if they are summoned by order of the public prosecutor's office. They are even more obliged to testify in court as a rule.

 

Anyone who enters the interrogation room as a witness often leaves it as the accused. Experienced investigators know how to cleverly exploit the tension between the obligation to provide information and freedom from self-incrimination. It's not always fair.
