Justice System

The justice system, also known as the criminal justice system, is the institution through which individuals are held accountable for offenses against the law. It encompasses a series of legal processes and institutions designed to maintain social order, uphold the rule of law, and protect individual rights. The justice system typically consists of various components, including law enforcement agencies, the judiciary (courts), and correctional facilities.Law enforcement agencies investigate crimes, collect evidence, and apprehend suspects. The judiciary interprets and applies the law, conducting trials and making legal rulings to ensure that justice is served. Correctional facilities manage the incarceration, rehabilitation, and reintegration of offenders.The justice system operates under established laws and procedures, aiming to ensure due process, fairness, and accessibility for all individuals. Its primary objectives are to deter crime, punish offenders, provide restitution to victims, and promote public safety. The effectiveness and fairness of a justice system are crucial for maintaining trust in legal institutions and ensuring that justice is delivered equitably across society.
