Re: # 2 Idea is humilate enemy. Like force him to make food and serve,Dishes, send him to pick up vegetables and cut them wash them, wash laundry by hand. But do not hurt physically , he can eat food after everybody eats and dishes washed. Humilate but do not hurt.

Re: # 1 may be spies and dirty players give 25 years punishment , then people he harmed can employ as servant for 15 years ( no salaray) and then govt of India pay 30 million rupees and same for otherway. So tension does not go up.

But state can execute its citizen. It works look at china there is discpline they on average execute 40 to 60,000/per year. people for crime and its fastest growing economy.Fear is the key which makes people to behave.
