Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the institution of the public prosecutor immediately after the end of World War II. The organisation of the work of the public prosecutor’s office was based on the experience of the Soviet legal system. It was a government institution with very broad powers and a very high degree of independence in its work. It is through the figure of the public prosecutor that we can best see the extent to which the politics influenced the legal order in the immediate post-war period. It was often said that public prosecutors were “powerful guardians of revolutionary law and interpreters of the demands of the popular masses at large”.
