Abstract:
This work was preoccupied with
the examination of malicious prosecution under the Nigerian law. It was pointed
out that malicious prosecution is an abuse of the process of the court by
wrongfully setting the law in motion on a criminal charge. It is the malicious
institution of unsuccessful criminal or bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings
against another without reasonable or probable cause. This tort balances competing
principles, namely freedom that every person should have in bringing criminals
to justice and the need for restraining false accusations against innocent
persons. Malicious prosecution is an abuse of the process of the court by
wrongfully setting the law in motion on a criminal charge. It is an effort to
disturb the proper functioning of the judicial machinery
