Lawyer Kristjan Tuul submitted an application to the prosecutor's office.
He wants supervision over how e-mails are used. Previously, Tuul asked the Ministry of the Interior the same thing. The Ministry of the Interior said that the prosecutor's office should handle this.
Tuul wrote a letter to the prosecutor's office. He emphasized that courts have said: using e-mails without permission is wrong. The Supreme Court stated that the police cannot demand e-mails without court permission.
Lawyer Tuul wants to know if the prosecutor's office is aware of how e-mails are used. He asked whether the prosecutor's office monitors this. He also asked if the prosecutor's office provides guidelines on how to properly use e-mails.
Tuul said that the Ministry of the Interior should conduct supervision. The prosecutor's office cannot do this. He noted that the state does not address this issue sufficiently.
A representative of the prosecutor's office said they are working on Tuul's application. They will provide a response within 15 days.
