Rape, Murder, and Acid Attacks: The Case for Stricter Punishments in India

India has seen an alarming increase in the number of rape, murder, and acid attack cases in recent years, with many going unreported. Such crimes are gory and have a long-lasting impact on the survivors and their families, especially in the case of child abuse. As an expert in the law, I believe that stricter laws and punishments are needed to deter such crimes and provide justice to the victims and their families.

The Case for Instant Death Penalty

There is a growing consensus that crimes like rape, murder, and acid attacks should be dealt with the instant death penalty. I concur with this view, as these heinous crimes leave victims with lifelong scars and trauma. However, caution must be taken to ensure that innocents are not targeted through the law, and thorough investigation and evidence must be presented before implementing the death penalty.

Equal Punishment for Rape Cases

Rape cases, whether it’s against adults or minors, should be punished equally. Child rape is the lowest grade of crime and should be dealt with the utmost severity. Paedophilia is an intolerable and disgusting trait, and any atrocities against helpless children should have zero tolerance. Male rape should also be considered in the same vein, and strict enforcement of laws is needed to stop such crimes from increasing.

Fast-Track Courts for Timely Justice

The delays in India’s judiciary system have been a longstanding problem, and timely justice must be provided to the victims and their families. Fast-track courts for rape cases must be set up, which will help in providing quick justice and deter future crimes. Justice delayed is justice denied, and the survivors and their families should not have to suffer for prolonged periods.

Harsher Penalties for Child Abusers

Child abuse cases are underreported in India, with only about 5 to 10% reported and the rest going unreported. Such crimes affect children for their entire life, and severe penalties are needed to deter child abusers. The harshest punishment for such crimes is essential, and the digital revolution in law has made it easier to investigate such crimes. Stricter penalties and efficient legal systems will lead to a significant reduction in crime rates.

The Case for Death Penalty in Every Rape Case

Implementing the death penalty in every rape case irrespective of gender, age, rich or poor will send a strong message that such crimes will not be tolerated. The implementation and enforcement of the punishment are crucial, with fast-track courts, tamper-free evidence and efficient legal systems needed to uphold the law.

Conclusion

The recent amendment to India’s criminal law imposing the death penalty on child rape perpetrators is a welcome and strong stance against such crimes. Stricter laws, fast-track courts, and efficient legal systems are needed to provide timely justice to victims and deter future crimes. The ultimate solution to reduce crime rates is through deterrence, and the death penalty sends a strong message to society that justice will be served. The government should take every measure to ensure that justice is provided swiftly and without loopholes.
