MEDIATION AS AN ALTERNATIVE MECANISM FOR A PUBLIC LAWSUIT
Criminal mediation is one of the modern means that represents one of the most important legal mechanisms for resolving disputes in a way distinct from what is required by classic judicial procedures. Modern criminal policy has tended towards consensual solutions or consensual conciliatory justice in many cases as a reliable strategic option in reconciling the state´s right to punishment, And the right of the criminal to reform and reintegration, in an attempt to reduce the phenomenon of the criminal justice crisis and the increase in the number of cases before it, and the failure of short-term punishment, so it became necessary to search for better alternatives to gain effort and time and maintain social relations between members of society by introducing a mediator who works on bringing the points of view between the parties to the dispute, and the establishment of an agreement that guarantees reparation for the harm suffered by the victim and guarantees the rehabilitation of the offender under judicial supervision.
