Crime in Pakistan is present in various forms. Organized crime include drug trafficking, money
laundering, forged Indian currency printing, extortion, murder for hire and fraud. Other criminal
operations engage in human trafficking, corruption, black marketeering, political violence, terrorism,
abduction etc The question is that what are the main reasons of crime in Pakistan society and why it
is increasing so rapidly it is because of the rising poverty, unemployment and inequality in Pakistani
society the rising case differences divide the society in to various parts and according to the status
law will be provided this contribute a lot in making people aggressive and frustrated and later on it
become cause of crime in society. Other Major causes are unemployment and illiteracy rate but
there are some other factors too like lawlessness, fundamentalism, backwardness and double
standards prevailing in the society. People around the world always think of Pakistanis as terrorists-
we aren’t all like that. Yes, I agree that there is a high crime rate, however, most Pakistani’s in the
lesser civilized areas of Pakistan suffer from extreme depths of poverty, which is somewhat the main
reason for high crime rates. What Pakistani government is doing for the betterment of its nation is
the question in minds of every Pakistani. Pakistani nation is disappointed that the government is not
going to provide safety and security to any one the properties and lives are not protected.
Frustration and aggression among youth is also becoming the cause of crime in Pakistani society
youth could change the future of country but in Pakistan youth are not given any rights nor there is
security of their futures almost every Pakistani is in dept Pakistan is facing a crucial financial crunch
and it will remain the same. There are no jobs and if some so there is no job safety people are
disappointed and due to that they become frustrated conduct crime like theft taking bribers and
what not. In Pakistani society there is no rule and regulation and due to lack of judiciary there is no
fear of being punished so this also contributes in increase in crime rate. What measures should be
adopted by the government to reduce the increasing crime rate some suggestion which I received
from Pakistani youth are.

Strong judiciary

Honest officers in law maintaining departments

Increase in salaries of police officers

Provide employment opportunity to youth

Aid should be used in progress of the nation

More and more industries should be set up

These are some of the solution which can contribute in reducing crime rate in Pakistan and will
paved the way for progress and development of the country.
