Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.

There is no doubt that people who commit

crime

should fear retribution.

However

, while some believe that there should be a certain affixed pattern of

punishment

for different types of crimes, I personally would agree with those who argue that the situation and the reason behind having indulged in

such

a wrong-doing should be taken into account while deciding the

punishment

.

Firstly

, it is very important to identify the consequence of a

crime

committed by an individual on the basis of root factor

such

as category of criminality. The reason behind

this

is, if the matrix of the type of

crime

versus the respective

punishment

is already generated and in place by the government, people who are aware of the former would think twice before doing something illegal.

For instance

, if the terrorists of 9/11 attack on Taj Hotel, India would have known that the consequence of wrongful done by them would lead to judgement of hanging them to death, they would have put their idea under microscope before executing it.

Besides

of the fact that people are aware about causalities of specific crimes,

this

approach saves a lot of time and energy of the

government, which

then

can be used for developing a country in various productive factors

such

as science and technology.

Nonetheless

, I believe that the environment and the intention of committing a

crime

should be verified before giving judgement and henceforth,

punishment

. The reason behind

this

is, sometimes certain severe actions are taken by an individual in the motive of protecting oneself or the others. The best and most recent illustration of Rajkot that fits here is the self-defence method used by a woman that sincerely hurt a criminal who had a cruel intention of raping her.

As a result

of incidents happening frequently, citizens of a country, to feel safe,

atleast could

at least, could

at least could

use the liberty to raise their voices against the false actions or doings.

Conversely

, if a juvenile is judged and given the same

punishment

as adults,

then

it is an unfair decision, as the younger one may regret and

hence

, there is a possibility of improvement. In conclusion,

although

it is highly recommended that a strict pattern of punishments can be followed for specific crimes, I strongly feel that the impetus and drive towards the wrong actions should be taken into consideration before the final judgement.
