It is my understanding that the prosecution is required to attest under penalty of perjury, that the information and charges presented are true and accurate.

If such information is false as asserted in the article, wouldn’t that establish a legal grounds for prosecution of Mueller?

Prosecutors and judges have absolute immunity, with the only caveat being the "wrong" is within the conduct of their job. It's one of the reasons investigators and prosecutors are separated, even though are in the executive branch. Prosecutors take as true, allegations from investigators and witnesses.

There is such a thing as prosecutorial misconduct, but the remedy for that is civil (money damages to the defendant) and reversing of any conviction. The prosecutor walks.

IIRC, Nifong got in trouble because he knowingly elicited and advanced false testimony. IOW, he played investigator too.
