The crimes of theft, perjury and/or defeating or obstructing the course of justice, harassment or sexual harassment, intimidation and malicious damage to property as examples of criminal offences. The investigations are conducted within the ambit of the South African criminal justice system. This module is focused on practical investigative work and not the forensic laboratory scientist. This module will use as lens the philosophical approach of Ubuntu as fundamental to ensuring that the principles of social responsibility, graduateness, human rights, anti-corruption, humanizing the law and Africanisation are enthused in the learning material and assessment practices. |
