Explain how the three government organs are at work in the case of the cybercriminals described above. How do they intervene?
In the case of cybercriminals, the three organs of government work together to address the issue.
The Legislature makes new laws to fight cybercrime, defining what constitutes cybercrime and prescribing punishments.
The Executive, through the cyber police, implements these laws by investigating cybercrimes, tracking down criminals, and making arrests.
The Judiciary, through the courts, decides whether the accused has broken the law, determines guilt or innocence, and imposes punishments such as fines and imprisonment.
Together, these three organs ensure that cybercriminals are identified, prosecuted, and punished according to law.
Explanation
The chapter on page 6 provides the example of cybercrime to illustrate how the three organs work together. The legislature creates laws against cybercrime, the executive (cyber police) enforces these laws by arresting criminals, and the judiciary convicts and punishes offenders. This demonstrates the separation of powers and checks and balances.
