This book is intended for students and practitioners of Singapore criminal law. It aims to teach criminal law in a realistic fashion, and to that end, integrates elements of criminal procedure, sentencing and evidence, when relevant. The book makes extensive use of learning aids such as flowcharts and diagrams, to enhance clarity and speed comprehension. Sample charges for each offence discussed are also included, to assist practitioners and students with drafting.
The structure of the book follows the progress of an actual criminal case. It begins with an overview of the criminal justice system, followed by a discussion of prosecutorial discretion. Thereafter, it discusses the substantive law on common offences in Singapore, with an emphasis on offences that are likely to be encountered in practice. The analysis of such offences includes practical applications, such as related offences that commonly occur in the same case, and possible alternative charges that may be offered upon plea of guilt. Finally, general defences in criminal law are discussed.
