Citizen Contribution: M Thiem [1995] ZAConAsmRes 568 (2 February 1995)

 


Mrs M. Thiem


2 Feb 1995

My modest contribution to writing the Constitx.ttion. I suggest that the present legal system should be drastically revised or canged because guilty people so often get away with murder or crimes, that breaking the law is considered too lightly in the knowledge that the present legal system (2) protects the guilty party to the detriment of the innocent and must prove his/her innocence In my opinion this is very un.fair in a democratic system.
