How to use "Impunity" in context?
There can be no denying that impunity is a major problem in many parts of the world. It allows crimes to go unpunished, allows abusers to roam free and allows corruption to flourish. When perpetrators of crimes know that their actions will not be met with consequences, it emboldens them to commit even more crimes. In many cases, impunity is also a factor in the recruitment of militants. When perpetrators know that they will not be held accountable for their actions, they are more likely to take part in harmful activities in the name of purported religious or ideological goals.
