Punishment for Various Crimes
The intentional commission of an act usually deemed socially harmful or dangerous and specifically defined, prohibited, and punishable under criminal law is referred to as crimes.
A crime is also an unlawful act punishable by a state or other authority.
Punishment, on the other hand, is the infliction of some kind of pain or loss upon a person for a misdeed
Punishment is the imposition of an undesirable or unpleasant outcome upon a group or individual, meted out by an authority.
Let’s take a look at some of the various crimes that are punishable by the law:
Punishment for murder is death imprisonment, life in jail.

Punishment for drug trafficking is paying off the fine.
Forgery: this is the act of writing or altering a signature for the purpose of deceit and fraud. This crime is punishable with years of imprisonment.
