Even in a special circumstance where it is suspected that the house holds important evidence while the owner is not a suspect, there must be an order from attorney general followed by at least 2 legitimate tool of evidences * presented by the BARESKRIM to the attorney general for a search warrant to be issued.
*it is in form of witnesses testimonies and hard evidence **
**hard evidence under indo's criminal law is any item directly related to the crime.
An independent judge with a lifetime job (whose salary also cannot be cut) is better than the attorney general. There was definitely witness testimony and I assume there was hard evidence in the form of a list of still missing secret documents given to Trump.
