We seem to be constanly driven by the idealistic thought of a “crime free” society. As a result we adopt drastic solutions as though being “crime free” is possible, is it?
Crimes always cause public outcry. We live in a homogeneous society where everyone knows the other person or some relation of the other person. We have the same religious beliefs, culture and history. These are binding forces but still we find crimes in our society. If we talk about crime free society Sadly, this does not seem possible. There seem to be some tendencies that exist into our nature that make us more concerned about ourselves than each other.
The causes of crime are complex. Less parental care , ignorance towards child , low self esteem , alchol and drug use are all connected in explaining why people commit crimes. Some people are simply at greater risks of becoming offenders because of the circumstances into which they are born.
Although many measures had been taken to reduce the crimes of a socity .the laws are harden for the crime problem such as drug laws, gun control laws, there are many measures in which punishment is harden by giving longer prison and prison labour ,also social reforms are taken to aware the people about crimes and their effects on society as it reduces some crimes in society nut it does not completely elevated the crimes from society
