Crown Prosecution Service

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is an independent agency responsible for prosecuting criminal cases investigated by the police and other investigative organizations in England and Wales. Committed to ensuring justice, the CPS operates with a focus on fairness, objectivity, and public interest, making decisions on which cases to prosecute and preparing them for court.

In addition to prosecuting offenders, the CPS provides vital support and information to victims and witnesses throughout the criminal justice process. With a regional structure of 14 areas, the CPS collaborates closely with local police forces to address various crime categories, ranging from domestic abuse to cyber crime, ensuring victims receive the assistance they need.
