I think you mean prosecute? Or maybe you really do mean persecute...

  Yes, I meant prosecute, it is a false friend. In other languages, like Spanish, "perseguir" could be translated to both, but in this context, you are absolutely right that I wanted to use "prosecute" :)

    Ooh good point, I can imagine why. Even in English, law enforcement "going after" somebody could essentially mean either.
