TEMPERING THE ENFORCEMENT WITH LAW: A MODEL

OF DIARCHIC LEADERSHIP FOR ENSURING LEGALIST

SUPERINTENDENCE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES

            Mr. Reghu M, IRS Batch 2015 & Kerala Law Academy, University of Kerala



                                   ABSTRACT

       Rule of law  necessitates its due and precise enforcement without any
       excesses. This paper conceptually analyses the existing and prevalent system
       of law enforcement and the fallacies therein, including the post facto nature
       of remedies  to violations. The structure of various law enforcement
       authorities is also considered including direct democratic leadership. The
       jurisprudence that has arisen with respect to policing reforms is specifically
       considered to analyse the direction in which a transformational systemic
       change can be envisioned. The fallacies in the post facto remedies offered
       through conventional fora like courts, ombudsmen, etc. are analysed to
       conceive an independent authority within the leadership itselffor prevention
       of violations and excesses. It is proposed to suggest a juridical check to
       reduce the possibility and extent of misapplication and abuse of power by
       law enforcement agencies. The suggested remedy is to replace the monarchic
       politico-civil leadership with a diarchic leadership consisting of an executive
       officer and  an  independent judicial officer. The partial juridical
       superintendence of the law enforcement agency is expected to ensure the
       legal basis of operations as well as bettering the performance of the agency
       at large. Reliance is placed on the niche that the judiciary has carved up for
       itself in upholding the Rule of law, through a cadre of committed judicial
       servants. It is proposed to co-opt judicial servants into the management of
       law enforcement agencies. The possibility of conflicts within the diarchic
       executive is also considered and  discussed, along with the possible
       limitations of the same. The Roman diarchic executive is modelled as an
       example for  designing balanced leadership for law enforcement. The
       constructive friction that might arise out of diarchic executive is desirable to
       ensure balanced management and minimal violations of rule of law.
