Under British and Australian laws a jury in a criminal case has no access to information about the defendant's past criminal record. This protects the person who is being accused of the crime. Some lawyers have suggested that this practice should be changed and that a jury should be given all the past facts before they reach their decision about the case. Do you agree or disagree?

A group of lawyers gave their opinion regarding the criminal case

laws

which suggest hiding their previous criminal record as

this

law would save them from any harsh penalty. In my opinion, I agree with the fact that

government

must make some amendments to these

laws

.

Firstly

, all the information about the person who has committed the

crime

before must be presented,

otherwise

if not it will be a huge relief for them as they will be saved from taking any strict action against them by the

government

.

For instance

, if a person has done some serious crimes in the past and his record is not shown before the judiciary they would be on cloud nine as they might get bail without any strong evidence against them. Despite that

government

must think about those

laws

which they have initiated at

first

.

Secondly

, against those which has

crime

been done would not get justice and inevitably their trust on the

government

and about democracy would be broken just because of those

laws

.

In addition

to that, there would

also

be no need for lawyers to push the judiciary to take strict decisions about the case and against the accused. By and large, I agree with the given statement. Especially, in those countries where

crime

rates have been hit the

highs

Add a comma

,highs

show examples

it might just cause havoc there, so these

laws

are against the innocent people on whom the

crime

was committed. To conclude, I must say without any

further

delay

government

must take these

laws

back, before it's too late.

Moreover

, Our society would

also

not remain the same if the

government

does not repeal these

laws

, we are going to see an increase in

crime

rates too.
