CONCLUSION:

From the above discussion, we can see that not

only the incident that a crime is committed and so

just have to punish the criminals is a backdated

idea. Now we have to look to the intention of thecriminal and the causes behind his committing the

crime. Without knowing the causes of crime, we

cannot find a solution to prevent crimes from our

society.
