A Survey Paper on Rudimentary Crimes

Abstract

Among those who engage in organized violations of the law, the author argues that investigating offences frequently requires complex examination of guilt. It has always been a source of contention among people to contemplate the conviction of a person for an attempt to commit a crime without the real crime being committed. It is of the view that the crimes that the defendant seeks to commit are of such a grievous nature that it is in the best interest to punish the actions carried out in execution of the crime in the event of failure to commit the said crime. The paper seeks to decode the purpose and reasoning behind punishing a person for an attempt to commit a crime and deals with certain factors that support the criminalization of mere 'attempt' by certain principles.
