In order to guarantee peace and safety, society has set up rules about which behaviors are prohibited and which allowed.
All human behaviour which is in contrast to the established prescriptions is viewed as dangerous for the social order, and some behaviors are judged as, particularly serious, such as murder, rape, robbery and corruption.
Perpetrators of such offenses will endure punishment because of their conduct, such as the death penalty or life imprisonment, or imprisonment for a specified number of years and/or a fine.
