BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 5. Certain
shortcomings have been observed in the organization of legal
education in Azerbaijan, Prosecutor General Kamran Aliyev said
during his speech at the LEGIS International Legal Forum in Baku,
Trend
reports.
Aliyev noted that many young recruits recently admitted to
prosecutorial bodies lack sufficient knowledge and skills in the
field of criminology, with some having no background in the subject
at all.
"When we investigated the root of this problem, we found that
criminology is taught as an elective course in most higher
education institutions, and many students do not choose it. As a
result, when these students join prosecutorial bodies, they face
difficulties because an individual without knowledge of
criminological tactics and techniques cannot effectively conduct
investigations," he explained.
The Prosecutor General also emphasized the importance of
enhancing digital literacy among law students, particularly during
a period of rapid digital transformation, to ensure they are
equipped for modern legal practice.
