MISMANAGEMENT OF DIGITAL DEAD BODY: EXPLORATION OF LEGAL ISSUES TO ADDRESS ECONOMIC EXPLOITATION AND HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION Mohammad Minhazur Rahman, Lecturer, Department of Law, State University of Bangladesh (SUB). Download Manuscript ABSTRACT Recent controversies concerning the digital remnants of the deceased and the ongoing debate for symbolic immortality that modern technology pose has already stimulated substantial concern for human rights researchers around the world. The political economy of people’s digital remnants and the human rights challenges arisen from this issue has given sociologists, anthropologists and psychologists fascinating chances to research more about changing attitudes towards death and dignified management of people’s digital dead bodies. The author has attempted to focus that people now expand, extend and eventually transform their lives on the internet and other web-based platforms. It has also been pointed out that people’s information is now re-created and linked in different manners after their deaths and they are utilised for commercial purposes. This research has questioned and compared the traditional concept of death with the emerging concept of digital death. Based on the existing research and available literature, the analysis has also been connected with the current legal framework that ensures dignified dead body management in wars and disasters according to the human rights law and international humanitarian law. The administration of digital identity after death, with thousands of ghost-accounts emerging each day, is becoming a significant problem for the global technology industry and a potential opportunity for technology-oriented criminals. This paper has been written with an attempt to objectively conceptualise the dignified management of the digital dead body and the current contradictions. It also focuses on human rights and points out the immediate necessity of introducing new laws on this issue. The significant areas of digital dead body management have also been covered where regulatory tensions might emerge in the light of digitalisation.

VICTIMS PLIGHT: NEED FOR GROWTH OF VICTIMOLOGY IN INDIA

Volume I Issue II /

VICTIMS PLIGHT: NEED FOR GROWTH OF VICTIMOLOGY IN INDIA Anirudh Singh, Student at jamia millia islamia university Download Manuscript ABSTRACT The paper deals with the concept of victimology and discusses it in detail with the help of decided case laws both in abroad and in India. Victimology means “the scientific study of crime victims including the study of the relationship between victim and offender and of the consequences and effects of being victimized.” The article discusses about its history in different nations of world. Afterwards the paper deals about its development in India. Victimology and its role in the betterment of life of every victim as well as sometimes in life of offender has also been taken in consideration. Then it discusses about various provisions for victims that are given in different acts and statutes, CRPC mainly plays a very important role in victimology. The benefits derived to victims by implication of correct victimology procedure and laws provide them a better way to heal from these ruins of crime that are suffered by them. The Victimology also forms a part of Penology and this aspect has also been covered in this paper. India also suffers a lack of an act/ statue which is completely based on victimology. Only one section in CRPC i.e., 357A deals with this concept but in reality, at least half of CRPC should focus on the concept of Victimology, therefore the drawbacks of not having a victim-based statue and work needed to be done in this direction have been discussed. At last, the role of our Judiciary in promoting Victimology and Victim Compensation has been discussed with the help of latest as well as landmark judgements. The judicial pronouncements have always played a role in the favour of victims even when the offender is state.
