As a result of the fast pace of life and commercial, economic and financial dealings and transactions between individuals and institutions, there are many people who commit crimes in bad faith or due to ignorance of the law and what criminal acts represent. Such ignorance can be attributed to the variety and diversity of criminal laws that govern criminal acts, as laws include financial crimes laws, money laundering laws, cybersecurity laws, environmental laws, licensing violations, commercial activity practice violation, immigration, nationality and residency laws, tax laws, disclosure laws, and labor laws. Each law has criminalized a set of acts, which makes it necessary for individuals to understand the legal obligations prescribed for them under each law and to always ensure not committing any criminal acts. It should be noted that criminal acts eventually end with a fine or imprisonment and some crimes may lead to the penalty of deportation from the state.
