State corruption
State corruption is also known as political
corruption. It means the abuse of public power,
office, or resources by elected government
officials for personal gain, by extortion, soliciting

purchasing votes by enacting laws which use
taxpayers' money.

the basic building blocks of a decent life.

undermining government institutions, which can lead to
political instability.
● Exacerbates inequality and injustice by perverting the rule of
law and punishing victims of crime through corrupt rulings
