There has been a high increase in the incidents of atrocities against women in the country during the past few years is a true statement

The police authority has been unable to nab the culprits committing crimes against women. it is also true.

Both the sentences stated above are about the same subject.

1. Atrocities is an extremely cruel act involving physical violence or injury.
2. It is true that atrocities are a very common phenomenon in our country specifically in metro cities like Delhi
3. Atrocities against women have numerous causes like
   • Women's insecure access
   • Male control over society and decision making
   • Practices to reinforce the female subordinate
   • Unsocial, sick-minded thinking 
   • Relationship with a living partner, etc.
4. But the culprits used to demolish evidence or the victim sometimes. So it becomes hard to catch them.
