Public Prosecutor Office Professionals Day is observed in Russia every January 12. This professional holiday was established in 1995 to commemorate the signing of a decree by Peter the Great on January 12, 1722, which appointed the General Prosecutor, marking the birthday of the Office of Public Prosecutor. The decree outlined the responsibilities of college prosecutors to report to the General Prosecutor, who held significant authority in Senate supervision. Pavel Yaguzhinskiy, a notable General Prosecutor during Peter the Great's reign, was recognized for his importance to the government. The Office of Public Prosecutor plays a crucial remedial role in society, addressing various issues that citizens bring to them. The office operates based on the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Federal law “On the Procuracy of the Russian Federation.”
