    D. all of the above

    Explanation:

    The principle of an eye for an eye does not take intentions into account, this is true because some acts of crime are accidental. Let's take a car accident that claims the life of a passerby, according to an eye for an eye, the driver of the vehicle will also be killed even though the manslaughter committed was not intentional.

    Secondly, this principle does not have a provision for crimes which do not cause anyone direct harm, for example cutting electric supply to an area does not directly harm anyone, how would such a crime be punish under the principle of an eye for an is unanswered.

    Lastly, the prescribed punishments seem immoral sometimes.
