We often hear about an alarming rise in criminal incidents throughout the country. in many cases, the persons accused get minor punishments while in some cases, they are set free due to the lack of proper evidence. how far is our criminal justice administration system responsible for this?

When a person, who commits a crime gets little or no punishment at all, the he/she is encouraged to keep on performing that crime or even indulge in crimes of bigger levels. This is because the person has no fear of getting punishment for his deeds, He thinks that when he was able to escape first, then he will be able to escape again from the punishment of his crime. As a result, the criminal incidents keep on rising to an alarming situation for a country until serious steps are taken to punish the people accused of committing a crime.
