Officers of the judicial police are required to inform the public prosecutor without delay of crimes, offences and contraventions of which they have knowledge. As soon as they have completed their operations, they must send him directly the original and a copy of the reports they have drawn up; all acts and documents relating thereto shall be sent to him at the same time; the objects seized shall be made available to him.
The minutes must state that the person who drew them up is a judicial police officer.
The public prosecutor may authorise the minutes, records and documents to be sent to him in electronic form.
