Criminal protection of suspects and prosecuted persons

The offender has a number of rights to a fair trial. These rights are often not known to legal professionals, often due to lack of adequate training. This book aims to educate any lawyer on the rights that a suspect or prosecuted person can enjoy. However, only Malian legislation has been taken into account, even if comparative law is used. We hope that this modest contribution will help to advance legal science on the one hand, and on the other hand to enable further training of legal professionals, even those who are not Malian.
