Abstract

Roman criminal law has had a huge impact on the development of the modern justice system. Its basic principles, such as the presumption of innocence, the evidentiary burden on the prosecution and the punishment in accordance with the crime committed, have become the basis for many modern legal systems. Roman justice sought to protect the rights of the accused and provide them with the opportunity to defend their interests in court, which created the basis for the development of the principle of fair trial. The Romans also made a significant contribution to the development of criminal legislation and criminalistics. In general, Roman criminal law has left an indelible mark on the history of justice and its principles are still applied in many countries around the world.
