After being punished, many criminals continue to commit crimes. Why do some people commit crimes even after having been punished? What measures can be taken to tackle this problem.
Certain
criminals
always have the tendency to carry out criminal activities regardless of being penalised. Clearly, the offenders believe that the punishments
given to them are only on a temporary basis and the trial does not carry any heavy weight on the lawbreakers as they are not severe enough. In this
essay, I will discuss how crucial this
problem is for society and how it must be tackled. The main issue for offenders to proceed with their inhumane actions is that the punishments
given to them are for a very limited period of time. Whereas
, this
encourages the criminals
to carry forward their illegal actions. For example
, In 2010 a woman in India was gang raped by seven young teenagers in a moving vehicle that actually killed the woman due to
the insertion of multiple rusty metals penetrated into her body, this
caused national news in India and once the rapists got caught, they were only imprisoned for 10 years. This
motivates not just the rapists to continue committing such
violations, but it also
encourages the other youngsters to enjoy such
felonies as the trials are only for some period of time. Firstly
, Crimes must not be taken lightly, as they can pose great damage to society. It is important for the government to look forward towards such
situations and increase the duration of their punishments
to a much longer period and also
impose criminals
with
heavy fines, so they may think twice before doing something illegal. Change preposition

On the other hand
, certain criminals
enjoy going to prison, because they believe that being imprisoned is better than living in poverty. One example of this
is, in 2018, a man in Bangladesh stabbed his neighbour multiple times due to
an argument between them, and later reported himself at the police station, and clearly stated to the cops that the inflation had increased so much, that he could not feed himself, and he did this
crime deliberately because he will be given proper meals in the jail, and clearly states, that the punishments
are not severe enough. It is important for the government to increase the severity of punishments
