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.

A certain proportion of citizens presume that punishments must be decided priorly for all types of crimes. On contrary, other parts suggest that the conditions leading to do

statement.

To begin

with, prefixing the same punishment for the same

would have few advantages. Due to the fact that it would same time in the court and make the guilty prone to the verdict at a rapid phase.

rate down. To illustrate

this

with an example, Dubai is the most prominent country which has very extreme levels of torture to the guilty and makes judgement swiftly. Molestation in Dubai would be given high priority and give a verdict within the consecutive day itself.

On the other hand

would give the person the benefit of the doubt because not every violation is done purposefully. To explain

in detail, let me consider an example. Though killing a person is incorrect, Russia has still passed a new law where women could kill a man if he tries to cause harm in any way.

great extent because it would not treat the act of self-defence as inappropriate and gave the innocent a chance.

However

, there are still chances for it to be misused which has to be given due diligence. In conclusion, both methodologies have few merits and demerits, if properly utilized they could work hand in hand.
