Many offenders commit more crimes after serving the first punishment. Why is this happening? And what measures can be taken to tackle this problem?

Crime, in many countries, has gone beyond the alarming rate.

Hence

, it is becoming a frequent norm to come across some or the other offence. There are a lot of criminals who tend to re-offend or commit more serious felony, after being punished, primarily because they become resentful towards the

society

and blame others for their misdemeanour.

This

way of thinking can be changed if individuals are given the opportunity to live a normal life. In many cases, criminals are seen to repeat the same acts, which landed them behind bars, upon being freed from their crime sentences. One reason for

this

is not all

such

people are born-criminals and when expelled from the

society

they tend to re-commit offences in isolation, because there is no one to accept them. Having a crime record makes it difficult for them to land a job, making them resentful towards the

society

.

Further

, due to lack of money they retort to smaller offences like theft or vandalism.

For example

, in many countries crime rates are high only because the convicted are treated differently and are accepted by its people.

Thus

, forcing them to revert back to their perpetrating attitudes.

Nevertheless

, while there are chances of the convicted, being forced out of circumstances, to commit offence after serving their initial punishment; necessary steps can be taken

such

as providing them job opportunities.

This

will keep them engaged in

work

Suggestion

the work

and

also

allow them to earn for a living. Initiatives should be taken by the government and people, by involving them in charity work and encouraging them to socialise freely with the citizens. Rehabilitation programmes for offenders,

for instance

, prepares

such

people to re-enter the

society

and offers education that will help them find jobs. To conclude, many criminals re-commit offences, after serving their initial sentence

such

as prison, due to lack of acceptance or respect by their fellow citizens;

however

,

this

can be prevented if they have the same rights as others in the

society

.

Such

people deserve another chance and involving them in charity work is a way for them to lament their crimes.
