In our Pakistani frame work sex is only acceptable in the realm of marriage and any other kind is illegal. But from where we are getting the forensic psychology is west and adultery is not considered illegal there but in Pakistan adultery is also illegal but as being forensic psychologist we need to know that people involve in this practice do not need any psychological treatment.
1. Incest
Is that crime in which usually victim is female and perpetrator is male, with whom marriage is not allowed in Islam like step father, uncle or father e.t.c
2. Rape
Is legally defined in Pakistan as an adult male sexually violating an adult female and in west the same charges are applied for a male victim and male perpetrator.
3. Sodomy
This offence has come from British law, and sodomy is legally defined as male sexually assaulting another male. In Forensic psychology we can talk about the treatment of habitual of sodomy.
4. Penetration with a foreign object
Perpetrators, who are not sexually capable, can use foreign object for penetration.
5. Oral Copulation
The perpetrator forces the victim to have oral sex and again it is a punishable offence.
6. Sexual Assault
Why this is different from rape because it can take many forms from hideous crime of rape to inappropriate touching. Such cases do not come into courts in Pakistan but can have a deep psychological trauma on victim and in west females are more likely to involve police in these kinds of issues and police is more likely to arrests that person.

7. Sexual Battery
Some body assaulting other but also violently, in west even many wives can accuse their husbands for sexual batteries. So on the basis of sexual battery a wife can get divorce on these grounds.

8. Sexually assaulting an animal
A person having sexual preference for animals can seek treatment from psychologists.
9. Sexual Homicide
Sexual homicide is a much more serious crime and a very tricky area because not all homicides are accompanied by the sexual activity e.g. a women is raped and then murdered and this is called a homicide but on the other hand is a serial killer who have killed six or seven or even more than this prostitutes. And clarifying himself by saying that I am purifying and glorifying the world and being a pious man it is my duty. As we know from our religion that taking state’s law in hands in not permissible. And In our psychological reference if a person is indulged in these kinds of activities, a psychologist would assume he is sexually motivated and this is another form of sexual provision and expression and must be treated. But it is a case of murder that is punishable by death so question of treatment does not arise.
10. Indecent exposure/ exhibitionism
It is legally defined as if a man indecently exposes himself to a female or to a child is considered a crime and in west urinating in public place is also considered indecent exposure and a crime but in Pakistan it is a common practice.
11. Voyeuristic Activity
Peeping other people with out their knowledge when they are in toilet or changing clothes or naked.
12. Lewd acts with a child are another illegal offence.
13. Molest Children
14. Invitation to sexual touching
15. Unlawful sexual activity with a minor, having relationship with some one who is legally below age. Here there is a mismatch in shariat and law as in shariat marriage below 18 years of age is permissible. But again this issue does not come under the category of treatment that a forensic psychologist has to offer.
16. Attempted sexual offences13. Molest Children
14. Invitation to sexual touching
15. Unlawful sexual activity with a minor, having relationship with some one who is legally below age. Here there is a mismatch in shariat and law as in shariat marriage below 18 years of age is permissible. But again this issue does not come under the category of treatment that a forensic psychologist has to offer.
17. Crimes related to child pornography
18. Pimping
19. Offering prostitution services
20. Seeking/ hiring prostitutes
21. Consenting sex in public locations
All these types are considered illegal in our country.
