Moreover, an independent judiciary contributes to the prevention of corruption within both the legal and political systems. When judges operate free from external pressures, they are less likely to succumb to corrupt practices, such as accepting bribes or engaging in favoritism. This creates a more equitable legal landscape where justice is administered fairly. Countries with strong judicial independence often report higher levels of public trust in governance and lower levels of corruption, illustrating the connection between judicial integrity and societal health.
