Answer: General

Explanation:

General deterrence theory is the justice concept in terms of crime that holds back illegal and criminal activities done by people. It is based on the punishment and penalties as the consequence of the illegal act conducted by any person which discourages other people from doing the same.

As the punishment is severe, it creates an environment of fear in mind of people and thus they do not attempt such type of criminal acts which can lead to the same punishment.
