There are two opinions on how to reduce the crime rate. One school of thought believes that long imprisonment is the best method to reduce crime, while others argue that adopting methods other than prison is more effective. In my opinion, I prefer the latter approach. Long imprisonment is not a healthy choice as prisoners can become accustomed to the environment over time, and fears diminish with time. Alternatively, methods such as mental torment, isolation in intimidating surroundings, electric shocks, physical punishment, and inducing disabilities are more effective techniques for dealing with regular prisoners.
I support the idea that keeping prisoners in jail for extended periods has a minimal impact on reducing overall crime rates. When individuals with similar criminal tendencies are grouped together, they share ideas and develop plans that can have a significant impact on society. They become more adept at criminal activities, leading to a rise in the crime rate. In Pakistan, where the crime rate has been high in recent years, prisoners are incarcerated for long periods and provided with comfortable amenities similar to those at home. Upon release, they often return to criminal activities, such as murder, as it becomes routine for them. This approach fails due to the inherent human tendency to form habits over time. Therefore, I believe that the government and regulatory authorities should revise their policies and find more effective solutions to address this issue.
Furthermore, the second option is more effective and can lead to a quicker reduction in the crime rate. Individuals involved in illegal or harmful activities should undergo mental torment before being isolated. Mental anguish can affect their overall brain function and deplete their negative energy. Isolation practices, common in European countries, involve individuals tormenting themselves, resulting in reduced energy levels and diminished negative thought processes. Additionally, administering electric shocks can be used to gather information, while physical punishment can transform their negative energy into productive force. Lastly, making individuals disabled can shift societal perspectives.
In conclusion, employing a combination of long imprisonment and physical remand can help reduce the overall crime rate significantly.
