                            Ethical Perspective on Justice and Accountability
🔍 Case Background:
📜 A former principal and ex-police officer were granted bail in the rape and murder case of a trainee doctor because the CBI failed to file a chargesheet within 90 days.
Ethical Issues Involved:
✅ Accountability:
⚖️ Institutional Failure: Delay in filing charges reflects inefficiency in law enforcement and investigation.
🚫 Evidence Tampering: Raises questions about the ethical conduct of those in authority.
✅ Right to Justice:
🔔 Victim’s Rights: Delayed justice affects the victim’s dignity and weakens trust in the system.
📚 Legal Loophole: Bail due to procedural delay shows gaps in ensuring accountability.
✅ Public Trust:
🌍 Delays and procedural lapses reduce people’s faith in investigative and judicial institutions.
Way Forward:
⏳ Timely Investigations: Ensure chargesheets are filed on time.
🔍 Transparency: Strictly monitor evidence handling to prevent tampering.
👩⚖️ Accountability: Hold agencies responsible for delays to prevent misuse of legal loopholes.
⚖️ Justice delayed is justice denied. Ethical governance ensures fairness and trust in institutions.
