Abstract | Honour Killings as a social vice has been ingrained within the Indian society since the time immemorial and has existed ever since in form of “entrenched flaw” tarnishing the very social fabric. The aim of this paper is to provide with a comprehensive sociological analysis of Honor Killings and various factors acting as a catalyst to this phenomenon. Further, the paper also focuses on the probable challenges which are faced by law enforcement agencies in detection of “plausible perpetrators” of these crimes. Most importantly, the ultimate motive of the paper is to analyze the factors which drive the mindset and behaviour of the offenders using the theories of criminology and sociology examining the role different kinds of institutions in addressing the perpetrators of honor killings. The paper also explores into a rather debatable question is there is a need for a special laws in the paradigm of legal system in order to provide curbing mechanism for Honor Killings or whether the current laws under the sections 300 and 302 of IPC suffice for curbing this vice. The paper also sheds light on the roots of the problem and provides some insights to aid in prevention strategies. |
