Abstract

This research paper related to Extent of crime in Indian Justices. Relative data is menially primary for obvious reasons. Even in the case of crimes committed outside the home, offences relating to sexual assault or sexual harassment are also grossly under reported. The recent UN sponsored International Crime Victimization Surveys (ICVS) estimates showed that one in five of all adults will be victimized by a common crime each year, with some of them re-victimized. Violence against women is more prevalent than against men. About twice as many women will be victims of violence in Africa and Latin America as in Europe and Asia. In Africa, Latin America and Asia, victimization of women through violence is more prevalent than that of men.
