About the Webinar
Criminal Prosecution, being one of the procedures involving the human rights of several stakeholders, is a Herculean task for the courts. The increasing number of offenses, especially during the COVID-19 Pandemic, makes the prosecution stringently delayed. The pendency of Criminal Litigation possesses capabilities to affect not only the victims but even accused persons. Its psycho-economic impact results in denial of the very basic human rights available to the parties at Proceedings.
The situation, though affected across the globe due to pandemic, has somewhat worsened in India and that poses a demand to analyze the position and practices of developed nations like Canada. Such deliberations may take place at academic forums, to access, analyze and implement better practices to ensure Therapeutic Justice to the parties at criminal proceedings.
