It is no stretch to say that the world of drugs and crime is a dangerous one.
The law courts regularly hear of cautionary tales about those who become involved in the underworld and end up paying the price. Those who rack up drug debts run the risk of incurring the wrath of their rivals and being subjected to violence and terrifying threats.
The consequences can involve arson attacks, stabbings and even torture. Meanwhile, those who are caught red-handed committing crimes run the risk of have-a-go heroes objecting and confronting them - often with force.
