The criminal justice system (CJS) = the state's organised response to crime: police (detection, investigation) → prosecution and courts (adjudication) → corrections (punishment and reintegration: prisons, probation, parole). Its goals: crime control (suppressing criminal conduct), due process (guilt fairly determined — the two models' tension, Packer's names only), doingjustice (proportionate, consistent, unbiased), victim redress, and offender reintegration. Nepal's frame: the Nepal Police (Police Act 2012 B.S.) and the Office of the Attorney General's prosecution service, the courts (Criminal Procedure Code 2074), and corrections (Prison Act 2019 B.S.; the Criminal Offences (Sentencing and Execution) Act 2074) — with the Constitution's guarantees as the system's spine: Art 20's justice rights (grounds of arrest, counsel from arrest, production within 24 hours, presumption of innocence, fair hearing, free legal aid — Art 20(1)– (10)), Art 21's victim rights (information, social rehabilitation, compensation) and Art 22's torture bar.
