Justice should not only be done, it should seem to have been done. When the person against whom the judgement is passed feels that justice has been done, it is real Justice. When everybody is satisfied with the verdict and both the parties feel content, it is Justice. In a system, where the rich rarely get punished for their crimes and poor always pay the price, Justice becomes a mere word of mouth. Justice without fear or favor, Justice to the weak is the aim of law. Law is there to protect the weak, it should not bend towards the rich and the powerful. When the law process is delayed and the witnesses are bought, there is no sense of justice. In a world of inequality, law has a special duty to see that the haves and have nots are treated equally. Witness protection is another duty of the legal system. The administration should ensured that the witnesses are not corrupted. Compensation pays a great role in the lives of the have nots but monetary compensation cannot bring back the dead ones. The guilty party should have a duty to provide for the dependents and the victim should feel that he has been given a just verdict.
