Sometimes if we carefully observe what's going on in our life we may notice a principle or system operating that is rife; punishment and reward is that which seems to be going on even though certain elements of it may be justifiably wrong. It resembles the broader principle known as the Law of Karma wherein or by which one can reap what they sow like a farmer.
The implications of this are taken advantage of by those who wish to impose their own idea of justice or vengeance onto anyone that goes against or crosses a certain line of their sphere where they hold influence and consider it to be some place dear. In many situations though the main reason is that out of jealousy which prompts one with a warped mind to do an act of treachery. _______
