How does a court's emphasis on evidence and law prevent mob justice?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The decision is based on proof and rules instead of emotion or rumour

Direct answer: A is correct. Mob justice occurs when people are punished or declared guilty through anger, rumour, or collective pressure instead of a fair legal process. Courts are expected to hear the parties, examine admissible evidence, apply relevant law, and give reasons for their decisions. This process does not guarantee that every decision will satisfy everyone, but it creates a reasoned and reviewable method rather than an impulsive one. A person should not be treated as guilty merely because a crowd is angry or a claim is repeated many times. Option A correctly connects evidence and rules with the rule of law. B is wrong because a mob cannot replace an impartial court. C is wrong because an unverified rumour is not automatically a legal rule or reliable proof. D is wrong because pressure is not the same as evidence. Memory cue: emotion may start a complaint, but proof and law must guide a judgment.
