The study sought to investigate victim protection act 2014 in Kenya and establish whether the act 2014 served as guard and saviour of victims in Kenya. Give it credit; the Victim Protection Act of 2014 (VPA) is a revolutionizing statute in the criminal justice system (CJS) of Kenya. It shifts the earlier misconceived or often sources of controversies in courts and settles them squarely in simple and yet awakening terms. One of the most imminent impacts of the VPA has been centered at the trial stage. This stage has seen numerous litigations ranging from the trial courts to the Supreme Court of Kenya.
