Federal Act
on Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy
(DEBA)¹

¹ The of­ficers and em­ploy­ees of the debt en­force­ment and the bank­ruptcy of­fices may not enter in­to any leg­al trans­ac­tions for their own ac­count in re­la­tion to claims to be en­forced or goods to be sold by the of­fice. Leg­al acts that breach this pro­vi­sion are null and void.

² Bank­ruptcy of­ficers are ob­liged to re­port to the pro­sec­u­tion au­thor­it­ies any felon­ies or mis­de­mean­ours that they or their sub­or­din­ates dis­cov­er in the course of their of­fi­cial du­ties or that are re­por­ted to them and for which there are spe­cif­ic grounds for sus­pi­cion.²¹

³ Sub­ject to the same con­di­tions, any per­son work­ing for the bank­ruptcy of­fice is also en­titled to re­port of­fences to be pro­sec­uted ex of­fi­cio to the pro­sec­u­tion au­thor­it­ies.²²
