Title

TIME TO REVISIT INDIA’S CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM

Abstract

The Criminal Justice System in India carries forward the legacy of Britishers. The purpose of criminal justice system is to protect the rights and personal liberty of individuals and the society against its invasion by others. Criminal procedure code; Indian Penal Code; Evidence Act are the basic constituents of India’s criminal justice system. Apart from these there are several other laws relating to anti social activities. The criminal justice system is focused on the relationship between crime and punishment; which is based upon the principle of rule of law. The main components of criminal justice system are police, courts, and prisons. Their primarily role of components of criminal justice has diverted from protection of rights and liberties of individuals towards furtherance of the cause of the ruling party and striking terror among masses. Mob lynching has become order of the day in India and in absence of legal provisions is ultimately displaying the harsh reality of even an imperfect protective State withering away. The Indian Penal Code doesn’t have any provision to punish a murderous collective. This paper presents the analysis of the country’s Criminal Justice System, relating to mob lynching, role of police in protecting life and personal liberties of victims of mob lynching and role of authorities in protecting offenders involved in mob lynching. Finally in the light of the Malimath Committee recommendations analysis is made whether there is need for reforming the system.
