You should not be punished if the person you offended forgives you for the offense. Not much fairness in court, is there?

Hindus believe in rebirth. Destiny is the the resultant effect inthe present life depending on the actions and thoughts of present as well as of past lives and which is governed the Laws of Karma .Destiny is not by God's will since God has given conscience and the power of discrimination to all human beings who are responsible for their actions-good or bad.But Destiny can modified by activities of the present life.

It is not pre-fixed.It is only balance (Punya-Paapa Saamyam=Balance of Benevolent actios vs Detrimental actions.As one reader has pointed out about Kamma in Buddhism(Karma in Hindu religion) Hindus,Buddhists,Jains,Sikhs all believe in Karma. Benevolent actions(Punyam) in this birth can completely eradicate the detrimental actions (Paapam) of previous birth.

you don't know much about Kamma (pali)Karma(sanscrit) do you.
Kamma is litterally action and not just any action but volitional action.
merit can be both good and bad as a result of our actions when we do good things we get good results when we do bad things we get bad results. no predestiny is in hinduism or kamma.

One create his own destiny. One can choose to kill or not. According to one's karma, yes, but we can change it. Due to our past karm we are forced to act but we have the power in which we can discriminate also, my present actions are going to determinate my future destiny. Moment to moment we are making choices which will change our karma.
One example can be giving of a farmer, whose crop depends on three factors: planting, rain, and time. Planting represents effort, and rain represents fate. If the farmer plants but there’s no rain, he’ll have no crop. And if it rains but he hasn’t planted, he’ll have no crop. Both fate and effort are required, as is time.
If we act properly and perform pious activities, we are awarded good fortune, and if we act sinfully, we have to suffer. Over time, good fate manifests as situations favorable to our endeavor and bad fate as unfavorable situations.
Destiny may even give us enjoyment or suffering without much endeavor. Winning a lottery, being born in a rich family, or diseased body are examples of this.
The relationship between endeavor and destiny seems quite straightforward, at least conceptually. By our endeavor we create our destiny: We reap what we sow.
Destiny sets the stage for us to perform our activities. A cow tethered to a post is free to move only as far as the rope will go. Similarly, the scope of our present endeavors depends on our past activities. That is why the human form of life is considered so special. Only in this form does the soul have some degree of freedom to shape its destiny. But with free will also comes accountability, which is why only in the human form does one accrue good or bad karma.
Ultimately, our endeavor shapes our destiny, and that is why the scriptures give us so many guidelines about what to do and what not to do.
The scriptures also warn us that understanding the law of karma should not make us callous to the suffering of others. The soul is intrinsically compassionate, and even though people
are suffering as a result of their past actions, the scriptures enjoin us to per-form the pious activities of giving in charity and helping the distressed.

Hare krishna!!!
