What disciplinary actions will be taken against officials who withhold criminal signs for administrative handling?

I have a question that needs to be addressed according to the new regulations on the disciplinary treatment of officials in the enforcement of the law on handling administrative violations as follows: In the case where an official with the authority to impose administrative penalties discovers signs of a crime but, due to personal acquaintance with the violator, only imposes administrative penalties without transferring the case file to the investigation agency as required by regulations, how will they be disciplined? Please assist!

Pursuant to Clause 1, Article 28 of Decree 19/2020/ND-CP (Effective from July 1, 2020) stipulating the form of disciplinary action of dismissal applicable to officials who commit one of the following violations in the enforcement of the law on handling administrative violations:

- Retaining a violation with signs of crime for administrative handling;

- Using money obtained from administrative violation fines, payments for late execution of fine decisions, sales, liquidation of confiscated items, administrative violation means, and other amounts collected from administrative penalties contrary to the law on state budget;

- Forging, falsifying administrative violation sanction records, dossiers on the application of administrative handling measures;

- Opposing, obstructing inspectors on duty, threatening, repressing information and material providers to inspection bodies or inspection teams, causing difficulties for inspection activities;

- Issuing unauthorized documents regulating administrative violations; regarding authority, procedures, penalty forms, remedial measures for each administrative violation in the field of state management and administrative handling measures;

- Failing to implement inspection conclusions;

- Abusing position and authority to harass, extort, receive money, assets from violators; condoning, covering up, limiting the rights of administrative violators while handling administrative violations.

=> Therefore, officials who do not transfer cases with signs of crime to the investigative agency but proceed with administrative penalties will be subject to the disciplinary form of dismissal.

The above is the support content.

Sincerely!
