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. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

The type of convicting offence and its related

punishment

among criminals in society has been a debatable issue in the past few years. Some believe that there should be always confirmed sets of

punishment

for every kind of

crime

.

Although

, I personally believe that situation behind committing a

crime

should always be considered enough before announcing a

punishment

.

This

essay will discuss why it is important to take a few points in a mind and what would happen if there are fixed rules for each offence. On the one hand, people who involve themselves in any criminal activity have certain reasons for performing illegal actions.

For example

, a recent article in the Times Of India journal found that an individual would turn their kind behaviour and involvement in illegal activities because of destroying family relationships, not having adequate money for their expenses and often have the influence of others who encourage them for doing

crime

.

Therefore

, recognizing personal reasons and criminal's behaviour before penalizing would offer them an opportunity to have a dignified life in the future.

On the other hand

, there are few who are on the side of giving a determined penalty for criminals. By doing so, there will be fear among criminals for doing offence as people know what will be an outcome of a specific

crime

.

As a result

, the overall statistics of

crime

will reduce significantly just because of fear.

However

, few do not change their mind no fear of

punishment

leads to convict

crime

.

For example

, giving a fixed sentence for each type of

crime

would not affect the behaviour of criminals. In conclusion, specific

punishment

for a specific

crime

could reduce the

crime

rate to some extent.

However

, I believe that understanding the cause of

crime

should be considered and

then

give an appropriate penalty.
