Punishment either in civil or in criminal are penalties upon a person for the breach of any law/ right/ interest etc.
Why there are procedures/ penalties for the breach of civil/ criminal law. Should res-judicata doesnt applies as the two being in contravention of the same principle as they are against the provisions of Article 14/19/21 of the Constitution of India.

Mr. Anonymous, your query is not clear. It is a settled principle of law that no man should be punished twice for the same offence.

Breach of trust is a criminal offense, when the valuable property is transferred.
Breach of trust is a civil case, when the party violates the terms of the contract.
