What is justice
What is justice? How is justice related to law? According to Lucas (1980: 3), justice "differs from benevolence, generosity, gratitude, friendship, and compassion". It is not something for which we should feel grateful, but rather, something upon which we have a right to insist. According to Plato, Justice consists of maintaining the societal status quo. Justice is one of four civic virtues, the others being wisdom, temperance, and courage. In an ordered state, everyone performs his or her role and, does not interfere with others. Each person's role is the one for which the individual is best fitted by nature; thus, natural law is upheld. Aristotle believed that Justice exists in the law and that the law is "the unwritten custom of all or the majority of men which draws a distinction between what is honourable and what is base". The concept of impartiality is at the core of our system of criminal justice. (Per S. K. Sinha, J) ... Major Md. Bazlul Huda(Artillery)=VS=The State (Banga Bandhu Murder Case), [9 LM (AD) 386]
