Plea bargain in law is when an accused charged for an offence ,admits that he is culpable of that offence and is willing to settle the case to find a way of resolving the conflict with the State Ministry of justice.
This implies that the accused must be willing to apologize to the victim for his wrongdoing .
This also connotes the fact that the accused must be willing to assist the victim to recover his property and/or restore him to the position he was before the crime was committed
The accused must ultimately right the wrongs done to the accused in terms of property or items stolen
To apply for a plea bargain,the defendant guided by his lawyer,must write a letter to the office of the State Directorate of Public Prosecutions ,Ministry of Justice,requesting for Plea Bargain
Plea Bargain is free and any defendant who encounter any hindrance in the process of plea bargain should send a petition to the Office of the State Attorney General immediately
Plea bargain facilitates justice delivery by ensuring that the victim is able to obtain speedy justice ,healing process and restoration
Plea bargain is cheaper for the accused instead of paying for legal services for a full trial
The Attorney General of the State has the final approval in terms of plea bargain and the result or outcome of the plea would be communicated to the defendant or defendants lawyer
