This was an ancient method of apprehending a criminal whereby a
complainant goes to the middle of the village and shout or blow his horn to
call the village to assemble and run to the direction of the culprit, who
when caught is meted with punishment without giving him the opportunity
to defend himself. This system was eventually changed in a much later
date, wherein once an offender was caught, he is brought before a royal
judge, but again he cannot defend himself since the only facts permitted to
be presented and given weight by the said judge were his actual capture
at the crime scene or his possession of stolen items. This method slowly
developed over a period of years. The idea of letting the punishment fit the
crime later came into consideration and the trial by ordeal was done to
determine the guilt or innocence of the suspect. The modern version of this
method today is what we call “citizen’s arrest”.
