Before answering any questions, each witness shall swear according to his/her religion or beliefs that they will speak only the truth, except for the witnesses listed in Article 156 (Authorized Witness without Swearing) who are exempted from taking an oath. To respect the rights to self-defense, the judicial police officer cannot interview as a witness any person with lead of quilt on that person. If the interview of any witness indicates the potential guilt of that witness, the judicial police officer shall stop the interview and shall report it to the investigating judge. A judicial police officer may call on an interpreter who shall swear according to his or her religion or beliefs that he/ she will assist the court by interpreting fairly and accurately.
A person who is called for questioning as a witness shall appear. In case of refusal, the judicial police officer shall report to the investigating judge, who can issue a warrant to the witness to appear in which the identification of the witness shall be specified. This warrant shall be dated, signed by the investigating judge and sealed. The warrant to the witness to appear shall authorize the judicial police officers to use public forces for compulsory appearance to the witness.
The provisions of paragraphs 2 to 5 of Article 93 (Record of Interview) of this Code shall be applied on the record of witness interview.
