            TEMPERING THE ENFORCEMENT WITH LAW: A MODEL OF DIARCHIC
            LEADERSHIP FOR ENSURING LEGALIST SUPERINTENDENCE IN LAW
                                    ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES

                                                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 itself for 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.
