Answer:

Note :

Crime has become an inseparable part of society. But this

doesn't mean that we can allow them to impact our daily lives and

create darkness even on the brightest days. Eliminating crime is must

and harsh punishments are one of the effective ways to reduce crime.

It stands especially true for the people who commit crime just for

fun. The concept of punishment is based on theories.

The theory in which goal of punishment is to deter

the future crimes is known as utilitarian theory. Deterrence is the

objective of harsh punishment as it creates an aversion for the

possible results of criminal actions. It is justified only when the harm

that punishment prevents is more than punishment given to criminal.

If it doesn't deter, it adds to the human suffering. Utilitarian theory

believes that punishment may or may not have deterrent effect.

Retributive theory focuses on the past actions of criminal.

The moral blame is assigned to criminal and his future conduct doesn't

form a base for deciding punishment. In it punishment is must and

justified as criminals have committed an immoral act and deserves

harsh punishment. It basically follows the concept of an eye for an

eye and a life for a life. The emphasis is on the moral connection

between guilt and punishment. Criminals pay their debt in form of

punishment. Also, it calls punishment as a form of satisfaction to the

family members

Harsh punishments are advocated by Retributive theory as

it is appropriate to punish a criminal as per nature of crime committed

by him. And yes it reduces crime as no matter what some people

don't learn easy lesson. If they are treated with sympathy, they take

it as a weakness of society.
