Abstract
The traditional system of criminal justice system mainly relies on conviction and punishment to deal with crime. But this method has been criticised often for not promoting justice, rehabilitation or community healing. It often leaves the victim out of the process. Recently, restorative justice has become a promising alternative. It focuses on fixing harm, encouraging accountability and bringing victims, offenders and communities together. These elements are often missing in the current system. This research looks at how restorative justice can be included in today's criminal justice system and its potential to change how we handle crime and punishment.
