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 these views and give your own opinion.

Some would argue that

punishments

should be more suitable for each type of

crime

,

while

others say that

punishments

ought to be tough for any situation and attempt to commit a

crime

, and should be taken seriously.

This

essay aims to discuss both views and give my opinion. On the one side, some

punishments

are unfair and unsuitable for some

crimes

. In some countries

punishments

are extremely harsh, it is said that they should be fixed their sentences that would be suitable for each case. To illustrate, in Iran, there is a tough

punishment

for drug addiction which is sending them to prison for around 5 to 6 years. From my point of view,

this

punishment

does not help for these kinds of cases because drug addicts can gain access to drugs

while

in prison and will be still hooked upon release,

however

, l believe that the authorities should fix

this

problem and decide fair sentencing for each

crime

committed. On the other side,

crimes

committed should be taken seriously by punishing them for their behaviour in the same sentence

such

as sending them to jail.

This

method will be obvious to anyone who has the motivation to commit

crimes

and prevent them from doing it in the future because they know the consequences of doing something wrong.

For instance

, Switzerland has the lowest

crime

rate because citizens know the consequences of committing

crimes

due to

their laws extremely having tough

punishment

for any

crime

. In conclusion,

although

serious and obvious

punishments

might be helpful and reducing the number of

crimes

. I believe that

punishment

should be fair and accurate for each case because

this

is the best way to preserve people’s rights.
