Author

Written in a clear, concise, and engaging style this book presents the entire criminal process in a simple, yet authoritative and informative way. The core principles that underpin the criminal procedure, their rationale, and assumptions are well articulated and critiqued. In addition, the book presents by way of illustration a comprehensive range of the latest local judicial decisions. The author’s triple heritage as a defense lawyer, state prosecutor, and university lecturer makes the book stand out as well-informed and balanced work. More importantly, the author presents some practical proposals for reform of the criminal procedure, informed not in the least by the dictates of our new Constitution.
