What You'll Learn
Singapore’s criminal law is codified and is principally contained in the Penal Code which was enacted in 1870. It has its roots in both the Indian Penal Code and the English Criminal Law. However, with the passing of time, criminal law in Singapore has developed and adapted to reflect the need for crime control and punishment in the local context. In this Criminal Law course, participants will be introduced to Singapore’s criminal justice system. The focus will be not only on specific offences but also on the general principles and approaches to the practice of criminal law.
