Of course, @Voice_For_India Hinduism does believe in Naraka lOka (Hell)
It is mentioned in Atharva Veda, where a person who denied Daana (charity) of gau mAta is sent to Hell.

The famous incident in Mahabharata where shakra(Indra ) tells Yudhisthira that why he should visit heāll first before swarga (heaven )
Srimad Bhagavatam : 3.30 As a criminal is punished by state(constables) a singer is punished were yama kinkaras tie a rope to his neck(sukshma sarira/ yatana sarira as described above )
we have garuda pUrana which talks about different hells and punishment.
