For the prosecution, investigation and, in the case of misdemeanours, trial of the offences provided for in Article 704 and related offences, the public prosecutor, the investigating judge and the specialised criminal court of the judicial tribunal referred to in the same article have concurrent jurisdiction with that resulting from the application of articles 43,52,382and 706-42.
Where they have jurisdiction to prosecute and investigate offences falling within the scope of Article 704, the public prosecutor and the investigating judge shall exercise their powers throughout the area of jurisdiction determined pursuant to Article 704.
The court seised shall retain jurisdiction regardless of the charges retained when the case is settled or judged, subject to the application of the provisions of Articles 181 and 469. If the acts constitute a contravention, the investigating judge orders the case to be referred to the competent police court pursuant to article 522.
