To protect the accused and to guarantee a speedy trial. This would prevent authorities from holding a person for a long time before trial. It prevents the government from silencing its critics by holding them for years in jail, without trials. A public trial guarantees that the trial be conducted in full view of the people who are interested in that trial. It also makes sure that the person on trial knows the charges against him/her so he/she may plan a defense.
