Justice under the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights. Is it all drama?
Article (1) of the Universal Declaration gives a natural and
universal principle that all human beings are born free and equal in rights and
dignity.
Article (6) of the
Declaration makes it clear that every person has the right to have his or her
identity recognized by law everywhere.
Article 7 states that all are equal before the law and are entitled
without any discrimination to equal protection of the law.
Under Article (9), a
person cannot be detained or deported merely at the will of the ruler.
Article (10) makes it
clear that every person has the right to be treated fairly and has the right to
be tried in a fair and impartial manner in an open and impartial court. Be from
Article (11) acquits
every person until the charges against him are proved in an open and impartial
court and he is given full opportunity to defend himself.
No person shall be
subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment
under Article 5.
In a country where
family dictatorship and monarchy have taken over, all this will be considered

family dictators can destroy the country and the nation for the protection of
their family, it does not need any rules, laws or articles of the constitution.
