CRIMINAL PROTECTION OF THE HUMAN RIGHT TO FREEDOM FROM PAIN
Keywords:
Bodily integrity, Harm, Permanent disabilityAbstract
The human right to freedom from pain is among the most fundamental rights protected by criminal law. Criminal law prohibits any act that harms an individual or causes discomfort by subjecting them to pain or exacerbating their existing suffering. This right extends not only to freedom from physical pain but also to freedom from psychological pain. This right is recognized for both the individual and society, as the individual performs a social function and cannot effectively fulfill their role in society unless free from physical and psychological pain.
