EXAMPLES OF MISUSE/MANIPULATION




                                                                  (2) Double jeopardy








        No man should be punished twice for an offence arising out of




        the same or substantially the same set of facts - this would




        offend the established principle that there should be no




        sequential trials for offences on an ascending scale of gravity:
