Procedural Legitimacy Between The Rights Of The Victim And The Accused, Khalid Mustafa Hamid Feb 2021

Procedural Legitimacy Between The Rights Of The Victim And The Accused, Khalid Mustafa Hamid

UAEU Law Journal

This research deals with the subject of procedural legitimacy between the rights of the victim and the accused.

» The convergence of criminal procedures with the concept of rights of the victim is not that surprising, since the ultimate goal of criminal proceedings is to protect the rights recognized by international conventions and national laws to the victim as a human being.

Conflicting Stories And Reasonable Doubt: Variations On W. (D.)'S Theme, Steve Coughlan Jan 2005

Conflicting Stories And Reasonable Doubt: Variations On W. (D.)'S Theme, Steve Coughlan

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Whether the guilt of an accused has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt is always a difficult issue, particularly so when the accused has testified.

If the actions of the accused are perceived to be inimical to the socio-political order then he may be found guilty of a defined crime which prohibits analogous behavior. Analogy may also be employed in a more restrained fashion as a principle of sentencing law. If the accused has committed a defined crime which is now perceived to be more deleterious his punishment may exceed the maximum legislatively mandated sentence. Analogy is, therefore, one method of defining …
