Everyone charged with a criminal offence shall have the right to be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to the law.
ICCPR
Article 14(2)
Justice is best served if trials take place without undue delay. This helps protect the presumption of innocence and minimise the human impact of criminal proceedings on victims, witnesses and people who are accused of crimes.
States should not treat people as if they are guilty before they have been convicted by a court of law. They should not make public statements of guilt during an investigation, use measures of restraint that make someone appear dangerous or walk arrested people through public places so they can be photographed by the media – also known as perp walks.
States should not make numerous attempts to try to secure a conviction. If a case goes to trial and guilt is not proved, the person should not be tried again unless there are exceptional circumstances. This requires the state to do the job of prosecution properly in the first instance.
