A high-quality judicial process will inevitably lead to either a conviction, an acquittal, or a termination. Stopping the criminal process against someone who has been wrongly accused is no less important than identifying and exposing the person who actually committed the crime. The innocent must be protected at all costs from unnecessary accusations, rehabilitated before the society with restoration of reputation and the guilty must be found, prosecuted and punished according to the sections of the law.rotermination of criminal processgrounds for terminationcriminal procedurethe sentence of terminationArticlehttps://doi.org/10.59295/spd2024j.75
