Abstract

In criminal proceedings, everyone claims to hold the truth, yet at times untruths or lies seem blithey to triumph. Untruths are therefore a living aspect of criminal proceedings and one can observe that, even if they are contrary to the objective pursued by criminal proceedings, they may yet articulate harmoniously with certain essential principles which govern and guide their unfolding.
