Jungle justice

Jungle justice or mob justiceor lynching is a form of public extrajudicial killings which can found in some Sub-Sahara Africa countries e.g in Nigeria and Cameroon and other countries like Jamaica, where an alleged criminal is publicly humiliated, beaten and summarily executed by vigilantes or an angry mob.[1][2][3] Treatments can vary from a "muddy treatment", where the alleged criminal is forced to roll in mud for hours[4] to severe beatings followed by execution by necklacing. This form of street justice occurs where a dysfunctional and corrupt judiciary system and law enforcement have "lost all credibility. European principles of justice have likewise become discredited."[5][6]

Notable examples include the Bakassi Boys[5] and the Aluu four lynching.
