As desire by you on the eve of International Drug Day ,26 th June .I am submitting this articles with short stories which co relate crimes and drug Addictions.This article can be a help for UNODC campaign .As the there is increase use of illicit drugs there is increase in numbers of various crimes including murder,rape,domestic crimes etc.
There is a saying in Sanskrit language that"Buddhir lumpanti yed vastuon madkari taduchate.) Meaning thereby that any substance. Which impairs mind is called addictive substance.So most of the crimes are committed under the influence of such drugs which impairs mental functions.
Crime rates has increased to 50.5 from national average of 3.8 in punjab India in year 2014 when use of drug Heroin was more prevalent so is also in most of the countries.
These Little Tales of Addictions shows a close relationship between crimes and drug or alcohol Addictions.
1.Bottle on eye ball.
One day when I was sitting in my clinic in the evening at about 7.45 pm one driver came with bleeding from his one eye with severe pain and weeping.I asked the fellow driver he narrated the story that when he was driving four young fellows who were fully drunk brought their motor cycle in front of their truck and just not giving side to the truck ,they were unable to drive the motor cycle properly as they were swinging their vehicle.This man asked them to give side which they did not gave.on the contrary they stopped their motor cycle so the truck was stopped .One of these young drunken youth broke the glass drinking bottle and while talking to this driver pierced this Bootle into one eye leaving him weeping and bleeding.I immediately referred him to eye surgeon after doing primary dressing.This is how the drugs and alcohol leads to crimes in the society.
2.Grand Mother beaten -
This grand mother of about 65 yrs old came to me ,while talking she was weeping because she was beaten by her grand son under influence of alcohol.Her only daughters husband died in accident who had a son of 5yrs .She brought with her and now taking care of this child now of 16yrs.Here the another grand son of his son was always jealo ous of him often abuse her under alcohol that remove this boy otherwise he will capture the whole capital.so one day when was fully drunken came with a wooden stick beat the grand mother.See how alcoholics drugs commit such crime.
3.Two widow sisters.
One sister whose husband died due minor scuffle while fully drunk and beating some one fell with head injury which lead to his death.Another sister husband a regular quarrelsome personality when drunken was knifed to death.both now widow.one sister came because her only son now follows the path of father is now a alcoholic and tobacco addict and Mother do not want to lose her like his father
4.Mother hanged.-
One young addict of heroin always demanded money from his widow mother for this addictive substance .She sold her most of the belongings for his ever increasing demand of drug .But how long she could have done this.
One day in afternoon this boy demanded money for heroin purchase which she did not have ,he beat the mother then removed her sari( long cloth worn by Indian women to cover her body) and tied this around her neck while she was crying for help to save life.he lifted her body to be hanged. ,she became almost unconscious and the neighbor came to resque her ,saved her.Such kind of criminal attempt can only be attempted only by person under the influence of drug.
So all these stories links close relationship between crime and the illicit drugs.So only solution lies in control these drugs by authorities and make the constant public awareness programme from the primary school.to college.level to reduce these crimes.
