Because the police are part of the Executive Branch of government which only ENFORCES the law, and not part of the Judicial Branch which judges the offenders.
The job of the police is to bring offenders to court, not to punish them. It is the job of the court to determine guilt and, if guilt is proved, to sentence the offender to punishment. In deciding the sentence, the court will look at past offences and in the case of a persistent offender the sentence will be more severe. In some countries (eg the US) if an offender commits 3 offences the sentence can be life imprisonment.
Did you mean vigilantes? If so, according to Random House, a vigilante is a individual or group attempting to enforce law and punish offenders without legal authority. For example, if I saw you liter and kicked you for littering, then I enacted vigilante justice instead of calling the cops.
Nagpur Police's motto is 'To protect good and to Punish evil'.
The correctional system punishes offenders through incarceration, probation, fines, community service, restitution payments, and participation in rehabilitation programs. The goal is to hold offenders accountable for their actions while also aiming to enforce public safety and facilitate their rehabilitation and reentry into society.

The corrections system serves to punish individuals who have committed crimes, deter others from engaging in criminal behavior, rehabilitate offenders to reduce the likelihood of re-offending, and protect society by keeping offenders off the streets.
