Abstract

As human beings, we all claim, crave and protect our birthrights. Even history taught us this fact through the wars and rebellions of many. It is in our blood. Denying these rights is equivalent to challenging our very own humanity. In Mauritius, we proudly claim the existence of our fundamental rights in our Constitution. Our Constitution and all the legislations that follow, are promises to safeguard our rights as citizens of Mauritius. However, are these rights the same for everyone? When thinking of inadequate rights in Mauritius, we immediately think of targeted groups – the poor and discriminated groups. Then, does it seem all rights are protected in Mauritius? What about those at the mercy of the authorities? What about those looking for justice? Do these people feel they belong to this country? This paper focuses on the rights of detainees and victims in Mauritius will be profoundly questioned to know whether they are sufficiently protected or not while comparing with the legal system of United Kingdom.
