The names of Tonu, Risha and Khadiza are still fresh in our minds, as is the brutality committed against them. And yet proclivity to perpetrate such savagery, especially against women and children, is not under control. Punishment of these crimes is rarely enforced. Some perpetrators have affluent or powerful affiliations, which further prevents their conviction. These cases have set up an example of negligence towards horrible acts, and given rise to a situation of panic. 

The government must establish the strictest possible punishment against crimes harming people's lives.
