Is India juvenile criminal friendly?Article by Pulkit mohan singlaIt is such a horrifying situation in India and such a nightmare
for the innocents who got victimised by the attack of juveniles. It’s been years and juveniles in India had been
doing serious crimes like murder, rape and even the rarest of the rare crimes but they can be punished only up to 3 years
of imprisonment.
The law, the court, the ruling party and the Parties in opposition all are ignorant and insensitive towards the
severity of the situation.
The biggest example of the careless attitude can be easily seen in the Brutal Rape and Murder case of Nirbhaya
happened on 16 December 2012. It’s been 3 years but all of the above well known powerful entities failed to pass any law
or ordinance for the punishment of the juvenile rapist.
The rape incident which was the most brutal in the history of crimes is taken lightly by the rulers of India. In this current
scenario he is out in public looking for his another prey which he can destroy.
The most horrifying thing is that his identity and image has been kept secret by the law which creates another
uncomfortable and dangerous situation for the common people and specially girls and woman on streets.
The government and political leaders are not concerned about this as their family and their life is protected by
security so the affected party is common woman and girls. The most important thing to notice is the weakness of law.
The advantage given to this brutal rapist has come into notice by millions of juveniles in India and there is some good majority of juvenile criminals who will be taking advantage of this law and will be free after a lenient imprisonment of three
years.
The most horrifying situation may come if the terrorist groups and other negative groups also take severe advantage
of this law.
