11. This was an ancient method of apprehending a criminal whereby a complainant goes to the middle of
the village and shout or blow his horn to call the village to assemble and run to the direction of the
culprit, who when caught is meted with punishment without giving him the opportunity to defend
himself. This system was eventually changed in a much later date, wherein once an offender was
caught, he is brought before a royal judge, but again he cannot defend himself since the only facts
permitted to be presented and given weight by the said judge were his actual capture at the crime
scene or his possession of stolen items. This method slowly developed over a period of years. The
idea of letting the punishment fit the crime later came into consideration and the trial by ordeal was
done to determine the guilt or innocence of the suspect. The modern version of this method today is
what we call “citizen’s arrest”.
