The safety of witnesses in the case must be protected
The evidence of many criminal law cases depends upon the witnesses. But in Bangladesh, it has been extensively recorded that witnesses face threats in criminal cases. In various criminal cases, including robbery and rape, they do not want to appear in court to testify. And they hesitate to go to court because of terror. The fears of violence, financial limitations, lack of confidence in the judiciary system, pressure by the accused, lack of state protection and lengthy judicial procedures reluctant them to say the truth. As a result, the trustworthiness of the case is reduced, in many cases the case is dismissed. This makes criminals more motivated to commit crimes.
