1984 roits in India - Guilty should be hanged?
546746
I do not think any one will disagee that all guilty should get the punishment as per their crime then whatever kind of crime they have committed. 1984 riots are shame on India's name. This should not have happened now this has happened we have to ensure that if this is inicited by someone they should get such punishment that no one should ever dare to do this again. We cannot afford one more 1984 as we have lost smile from one of the most smiling community. Community which use to crack jokes on themselves to make every one laugh. I cannot imagine my school class without my sardar friend who use to make our life so kool that we use to forgot all our study tension. I undersand that this no more there things have changed for bad and if I am given power I would not spare who made this loose. Either hung them or put them in such miserable condition for life that they get punished for snatching smiles from my friends face.

The death penalty was stopped in this country in the 1960's,as a lot of truly innocent people were executed.\nOkay we only had hangings,but i think it should be brought back now,as we've advanced so much.\nWhat with d.n.a testing and other ways of gaining evidence,i don't think we would have a problem apart from people crying out about their `human rights`

Well I wouldn't unstrap myself unless my own life was at risk or for another good reason. You would not be a murderer, possibly manslaughter because you didn't choose to kill the boy. You would be the victim too because this would hvae been done against your will. You could call it unlawful imprisonment.

A wise and experienced judge weighs both justice and circumstances.  The purposes of imprisonment in this case would be to ensure the crime is not committed again (done, by virtue of his being too ill to drive ever again) and to ensure that he is made to pay a price for what he did (done, by probation).\n\nIf an 89-year-old man went outside with a shotgun and purposely murdered people, that would be different and I believe handled differently by a judge.  This was, for the most part, an accident.  I agree that there is no reason to spend taxpayer money to imprison a very ill man when he will surely never drive again and is experiencing punishment that probably goes beyond what prison could inflict upon him anyway.

no they shouldnt, of course each case should be looked at individually, but this man has no remorse for what he has done, what a horrible way to die and be remembered

Yes, they should be stuck in jail for life.

This is not a good idea. At the moment the police know who these people are and watch them carefully. \n\n/&#92; if this is true how come so many of the vile scum re-offend /&#92;\n\n\nwe should know were they are at all times and that should be locked up in a very small dark room  or even better executed

WHEN YOU ARE KING OF ANY COUNTRY YOU DO RIGHT AND WRONG THINGS UNDER ADVISE OF YOUR OFFICERS OR MINISTERS.  TO GIVE ONLY BLAMES TO THE KING IS NOT RIGHT.  AS PER MY OPINION NO EX KING OF ANY COUNTRY SHOULD BE HANGED THOUGH HE IS RIGHT OR WRONG.

I SO flunked a paper in college once on this subject.  I am in favor of capital punishment & my professor wrote that I "failed to make a compelling argument".  All I said was that child rapists/killers should be strung up by their balls & suspended mid-air until they die!!  Am I so wrong?\n\nForgive me, Lord, I was not brought up this way!  These are my own convictions & I stand by them!!

Well if he was in a hole like Saddaam, I would "accidentally" drop a bunch of food and water down there, and then "accidentally" cement the opening so that it could never be opened again. We'll let him spend a little time down there thinking about what he REALLY believes. Sounds cruel? It's better than killing him, and better than putting him in jail where someone could help him to escape and plan another attack. I personally would not have any problem with lopping off is head, but I don't think I'll be his judge. Money is no reward either.

In the UK - yes as you were bound over. In 1983, if you had been found 'not guilty' they would have had to have been destroyed, but nowadays they remain on file even if you are acquitted - as does your DNA and photograph.\nI'm a police officer, but I still think that this is a gross infringements of our human rights, and building up a DNA database by the back door....\nAnd yes, I do read The Guardian....

It depends on what they did.\nIf they provided the means, or assisted the person, they are criminally responsible.

It is very sad incident. How the entire administration collapsed is a very serious issue. The classifications like SC, ST and NT were all done by the British rulers to help their cause. It is most unfortunate that they continue here till today. \n\nAttrocities on anybody by anybody is condemnable. \n\nI disagree with the communists when they ALWAYS LAMENT and GENERALISE that the attrocities are ALWAYS done by upper caste rich hindus on lower caste poor hindus. That is a very clever false propaganda.\n\nThe feelings of seperatism and untouchability should be wiped out from the hearts of the people and not merely from govrnment rule books.\n\nThe rest of the society sould take the issue and see tht justice is done.\n\nIf it were a muslim family instead of the poor dalit family, the entire media and pseudo-secular politicians would have by now made a lot of noise.

He committed the crime when he was 50 year old. He then sat on death row for the next 24 years, so yes he sentence should be carried out, should have been done much sooner.

Okay then, it's fairly obvious where you stand.\n\nI agree in principle with this statement:\n"This is the least Saddam deserved," \n\nThough I do not like hanging as a method of execution.
