Innocent - Innocent

Japanese: 無罪 - むざい
Innocent - Innocent
A case where the accused is not found to have committed a crime, or a trial to that effect. There are two cases: when the evidence does not prove a criminal fact, and when the accused's case does not constitute a crime (Criminal Procedure Code, Article 336). The accused is presumed innocent, so unless the fact of a crime is conclusively proven, he or she must be found not guilty. When a verdict of not guilty is finalized, the accused can receive compensation from the state for the costs incurred in the trial, and if he or she was detained before trial, can claim compensation for this (Criminal Procedure Code, Article 188-2; Constitution, Article 40; Criminal Compensation Law, Article 1).
