Hey guys, I'm dinlikngam. Many has speak so many things about capital punishment. I'd almost agree with that, well something what I want to add according to my view is that, If the government take up more severe punishment than the capital punishment not only he or she who commit crime but also the entirely family members should give a death penalty, so that the society will be more safer and it would be more secure. THANK YOU.

Hi all. I am in favour of giving capital punishment in INDIA because in our country capital punishment is only given on rarest of rare case not in an ordinary cases of murder or rape cases. Other thing is that C.P(capital punishment) is an instrument to scare the criminal. Just think that if C.P. Is abolished then the criminal would be fearless and would co the crime fearlessly. Another thing is that we do have pardoning power with president and governor under article 72 and 163 resp. In Indian constitution if the accuse think that he is convicted wrongly.

Hello friends I am Shabnam khan I think capital punishment should not be banned because crimes are like a disease if we do not take complete course it may be appear again so it is necessary to take the whole course that means we will have to rooted out the disease and the capital punishment is only the way to rooted out such dangerous diseases.

Hi everyone! I am from Turkey. Unfortunately, our country has a high rate of violence against women. Every year, thousands of women are killed by their relatives, husbands in front of their children. I am frankly appalled when I read or heard this news and I (sometimes) think that the death penalty should be implemented for committing this crime. But it is nothing other than revenge. An eye for an eye would leave the world blind.

Hi friends. I think that capital punishment should be banned because in this punishment the culprit should not realize his/her crime. According to me there is that type of punishment in which he/she feel shamed in the public. This is the need of an hour to teach the culprit a lesson but not by ending their lives.

Hi. By giving capital punishment court can stop one person to crime, but it can't stop the crime for ever in the society. Court should investigate the reason which make him to crime and find the solution, so no other can do the same crime again. If there is unity and equality in the society we can stop the crime. So firstly we should change our self.

Hi All, I believe that when the Indian government has finally gone on to introduce a new law to help curb the crimes against women, it is now to be seen how effectively and efficiently the laws are put to use. Indian has always had many rules and regulations being set up in the past. But has the government ever acted according to the laws they formulate themselves? I don't really think so. With the proper measures and efforts put in by the law enforcers, sensitizing the police force and giving them proper training is really important. It's extremely necessary to have the police act sensitively towards the victims who already undergo so much trouble. Victims of crimes like rape, acid attacks, assault, human trafficking, prostitution, bonded labor and so on have to face so much torture - be it society at large, the police whom they seek help from and the government. It's become a must for the educated like us to at least stand up for such causes and voice our opinions when unfair practices keep happening right around us every now and then.

What I am of the view is that as we are not a very well-off nation so at first we should investigate as to under what circumstances the person has committed the crime that is to say whether or not he has done that for his stomach. If he has done that just for sake of his stomach then I would say Imprisonment would be more appropriate. Also we should check whether he has committed the crime for the first time if yes then perhaps law can be a little lenient towards him. However if he happens to be well-off and that he has done under his full consciousness and also if he has committed the crime more than once then I believe that it really is the need of the hour to set some examples for those who dare to commit any heinous mistake and the best way is the so called CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. As the most fearful thing is DEATH so by convicting them with capital punishment will instill fear in the minds of others who chooses such path of crime. So in short I would summarize: FOR: 1. For the needy and the poverty ridden who commits a crime for his survival perhaps can be looked at with a little leniency and can be given imprisonment. 2. For the first time offender we can as well be lenient. 3. Perhaps people are the best resource a country can have and to lose them any way is a great loss in itself. So in that context Capital punishment is out of question. 4. Imprisonment would provide them a chance to repent and if good counseling is given then we can bring the best out of him because it just requires a change in mindset to make a person good and make his do good. AGAINST: 1. For those who commits repeatedly there should be no respite because they are the real bane to the society. 2. Giving CAPITAL PUNISHMENT sets an example for others who may dare to do such things in the future. It makes them think 100 times before ever joining the same group. 3. It eliminates any possibility of a person committing any mistake ever again. Once proved that the person is a evil to our society its a good way of cleaning the environment. 4. Any person who commits the most heinous kind of crime in full consciousness CAPITAL punishment is a must as he can do it any time in the future.

I strongly support those who are against abolishing of capital punishment. The government or the Indian system instead should implement more of hilarious punishment so that criminals will never have a guts to commit any crimes. It would scare them instead with it's very name of punishment. The criminals can never be change how hard we try to do so, they are habituated of committing crimes. So in order to have peace and freedom in the society the criminals should be punished. The murderers, the robbers, thief, rapist all should be hang or encounter. There should be no forgiveness. Or else the Indian government should be accountable if criminal rates rises.

In my opinion, capital punishment is not a right solution to stop crime. Because it may have some adverse impact on our society. If one criminal does a crime like rape, he will try not to leave any clue about his heinous crime. i.e in most of the case the person will try to kill the victim. Rather than hanging them to death, they should be given cruel punishment for their whole life. So that they can realize their cheap deeds.

I don't think so that its a good idea to continue capital punishment. Though it is offered in rarest of rare case but for such cases like brutally raping, murdering would be too less to get away with. The criminal should be made to stand in shoes of the victim so that he could realize what the other person went through. Moreover it would be like setting an example for others so that every time someone commits a similar crime his skin goes goose flesh thinking about the after effects of crime. For example in rape cum murder case of Delhi the criminals should be castrated so that anyone who try raping a girl should shiver with the thought of consequences. Strict laws should be enacted with respect to it.

Hi, I disagree with what "nemo" has said that US in spite of having capital punishment is still one of the worst countries in terms of crime. And Europe not having capital punishment does not have comparatively higher crime rate. I just want to say that most of the crimes being committed does not fall into the category of "rarest of rare cases"so even if people commit crimes intentionally or unintentionally (since most of the crimes are committed in a heat of moment or under any influence) such as rapes, homicides that"ll probably not fall under the category of capital punishment they are unlikely to be given a death penalty. So where is the fear of getting executed. Hence I disagree with you on this point.

As a Indian people everyone should have the man power say self analyzing capacity. No one have the rights to take or misuse the life of others we should think about our activities whether doing things are good or not.

Hey friends, I agree that today there is no fear left in criminals but capital punishment is not the only way to deal with. Capital punishment itself is a judicially assisted murder. It can not be a deterrent until swift and sure delivery of justice can b ensured. Police should get active now and administrator should empower police to act against criminals. Making only strict laws would not establish law and order in our country. Government should take strict action against guilty and set an examples for criminals. We have to improve our system and empower administration to become a better society.

Nemo said: (Mon, Feb 11, 2013 12:03:50 AM)

The law uses death penalty as an ultimate punishment and also as a deterrent of any further crime. People fear death most, so the notion of a death penalty is supposed to prevent them from committing the crime in the first place. An alternative to death penalty in vogue is life imprisonment, maybe without parole. People who support death penalty over life imprisonment have the burden of proving the deterring effect of the former over the latter, but this is rarely the case. Over years of statistical studies it could not be proved that inflicting a death penalty would more efficiently prevent capital crime. There are data on the contrary like crime rates in US (where you have death penalty) is much more than that in many European countries (where death penalty has been abolished). The capital crime can have many factors affecting it, and it is difficult to assert with certainty that capital punishment as hanging by death would affect it profoundly. Most of the heinous crimes are committed at the heat of the moment, at moments of emotional stress, zeal, passion or maybe under the effect of drugs or alcohol where logical thinking on the part of the criminal and considerations of the consequences are not present. How can the existence of a legal death sentence deter a crime in such a situation ? In cases crime is premeditated, where the criminal fully aware of the consequences plans and commits a crime (and of course expects to escape the capital punishment). The law should show no mercy to such cases and death penalty should be imposed. The criminal while committing the crime has accepted the consequences and there is no reason the society should show him mercy because doing that will pave the path for further criminals. Thus death penalty can be effective in curbing the predetermined crimes. There remains a thin line in separating predetermined and non-predetermined acts of crime which needs to be covered up soundly by the law. There should not be any loopholes to be exploited by the criminal, and it is not very much possible for the current judiciary from its past history of cases and research base to come up with a solution for that. As a final word, an eye for an eye would leave the world blind. So death penalty should be reserved only for the rarest of rare crimes.

Delhi Gang Rape, they 100% eligible for Capital Punishment (death sentence) because whatever did all those are intentionally done. All the execution will have to be done in public, so that they (people) learn something from that punishment. For example "Kingdom of Saudi Arabia".

For the those who commit the mistake again n again like murder,rape, terrorist. No doubt gov should have to adopt strict law. On the other hand all parents should have to take initiative in this for their children. Because it starts from the home. So parent have to give a good knowledge like respects the own nation and other. Respects the girls. Do not commit the crime etc. . We have not a right of taking ot her life because it is give by god.

In Arabian country's this is the punishment for any illegal action so crime in Arabian country's is very low. Yesterday only our Indian government took a nice decision i. e, to hang out the Delhi gang rapists. But transformation of law and order should be donor in India so that every small mistake cases a big punishment so that every one will fear of doing such crimes. Finally strict laws to be implemented by the Indian government to settle down the crime rate. Thank you.

Hi gentlemen, Here am Sachin jordan, according to my point of view, it should be enabled in India which creates a fear in minds of criminals, but Indian government show more and more mercy that result is increasing crimes. Rate of crime goes up. Rate of murder goes up. Rate of rapes increasing day by day because Indian govt rules are wrong. For examples. 1. We all know about Ajmal kasab, was one out of ten terrorist who attacked on hotel taj on 28 nov 2008 in Mumbai but he was live from last 4 years in arthar road jail pune but at least he hanged in yarwada jail on morning of 12 nov 2012. 2. The bereaved father of the Delhi gang rape victim also demand death for rapist. 3. All politician and protesters demand death for rapist. Death for criminals is the only way of punishment if Indian govt wants to control crimes in India. For example. 1. In Arabic countries why the crimes cases are less this is the only thing because the government not shows mercy direct death for such types of commit. My conclusion. Nobody is having a right to take the life of other person other than god if someone do this then that person should be punished in the same way. Thanks a lot.

YES the capital punishment should be banned and I am very well with this fact because what capital punishment actually is you tell me. It is like a person who commits crime will be hanged to death and we feel that way justice has been done to the criminal rite? No this is not the way and if this is followed what will happen is that the criminals may be reduced but what bout the crimes? I am sure they won't do. The need of the hour is to teach these people a lesson not by ending their lives but by making them realize that what have they actually done. Like in the recent Delhi rape case those guys they should be kept alive and tortured in the same way they did. This is how they will know that what did those poor young fellows went through because of their cheap deeds. If you say that they should be hanged to death then that is the easiest way of escaping out of the situation and finishing the whole story. Therefore the initiative should be taken not to finish a story but to make people aware of what they will have to go through if they even think of committing such crimes.

I think capital punishment is a must for dealing with dangerous crimes like murder, rape etc. One should always remember that no mode of justice will work if it goes against human nature. Tit for that is human nature and if law and order fails to provide justice people will take law in their own hands. The first object of law is to provide justice to the victim. However I agree that repentance of culprit is also an object of law but the fear of hurt or death is most appropriate way to make a culprit repent ; remember Kasab? He was sorry for his crime only when he came to know that his life is going to end soon. And anyways I do not agree with opinion that capital punishment should be banned because crime is increasing in our country even though there is death penalty. Crime is of course increasing despite death penalty because only in rare among rarest cases death penalty is awarded and that also from past 20-25 years only 2-3 cases are actually executed. Allow more execution of death penalty I am sure crime rate will lower down. And above all is it humane to deal a heinous criminal with pity and not even caring once about the victim who either loses his life or suffers whole life because of crime committed with him. If it should be so than abolish punishment fully because its of no use if it cannot impart justice.

Nowadays the number of crime will increase because our punishment against a crime is kind full. Today the number of sexual harassment, number of murder are increased. Because of our punishment way is totally wrong. I think government should give capital punishment to people who done sexual harassment, murder etc. The women in our country is not safe because our punishment way is wrong and we give mercy to criminals.

The decree or law (s) which rewards capital punishment or death penalty is after considering the degree or the crime/offence committed by the criminal. For instances in previous cases like parliament attack, Mumbai attack (recently capital punishment given) , Delhi moving bus gang-rape case if decision is to let the criminal free of this punishment then it may be possibility for re-happening of similar cases as there will be no fear among criminals in doing such brutal acts. People should respect the law and decision for capital punishment because apart from serving the respective judgement it also provides justice for someone who lost their loved one.

Previously and now the courts will refer the old cases before they give a final judgement.

Hi. Everyone. I would directly ask you people that if we think that we are the only good ones (who is posting these comments) and the criminals are the bad ones. Then I can pose you a question that for our food sake we always 'sexually assault' cows and buffaloes for milk by squeezing their milk glands. Is that not a crime on our part. ? Shouldn't we filed a case for that abuse ? We too commit crimes which are microscopic for us and we usually don't expect us to be punished. ! Do punishing will always be helpful for us as We, Human Beings are grooming ourselves to continual changes by the effect of environment. I think Killing will make a satisfaction for 1 day in our mind and we feel that its an 'achievement' that we got down the dreadful element in this world. But what about our heart? Will it accept your decision. It will always feel Guilty for encouraging it. So, A 'Human' Being is going to be an endangered specie to themselves on this earth. Now to the point I think Capital punishment should not be banned but they should be upgraded by keeping in view, of the environment in which they commit it, how the punishment will impact on the huge mass of population. So, the loopholes in the law should be replaced (not by bringing up new laws for 'name sake') but with the 'strict measures' from the State. As the people will always depend on State decisions. It should always ensure for maximum happiness and well-being in the society. I always believe that we win when we 'work' together but not when we ' Hate' each other. Thank You.

I think that capital punishment should be banned as it does not help in improving the world. Even though we are sentencing death to the criminals, there is no difference as they die and there many suicide bombers who are disturbing the peace of a society other than killing themselves. If the government tries to improve the criminal's behavior other than hanging them then there is a chance of them improving. But if the government hangs them, then their companions or that particular terrorist group may seek revenge to the people and in return may kill many more. By saying this I do not mean that capital punishment should be banned completely. It should be applicable only for a few cases, like that of kasab's. So this is my view on whether we should have capital punishment or not. I am only a 13 year old girl but on this matter even I should say something as this country's future is my future.

Capital punishment should not be abolished. If we says that taking a man's life as a vengeance is not good, what about the people whom he has killed?There is no value for their life? We should remember that because of such criminals many of the families had lost their breadwinners, their children etc. If a person is not punished according to the crime he/she has done, others will repeat the same crime a thousand times, they will not have any fear of punishment. Judiciary gives capital punishment only after a series of trials and according to the nature and gravity of the crime. For instance, in Kasab's case he was given death sentence only after a series of trials which were conducted over four long years and he was also given enough opportunities to defend himself.

I don't think that killing criminals is fair at all. According to our law, to kill or harm someone is legally wrong. Then what is our law doing with the criminals? For example, kasab was a Pakistani terrorist. He was found culpet in the 26/11 case for killing hundreds of innocents and the output was found that he was given capital punishment. But in the opinion of some authorized persons it was very unfair. So I think that capital punishment should be banned. "Every time the criminal is not the real criminal".

I think punishment should not be banned because this is only way through which we can create fear in the mind of criminals, because today crime is going on higher & higher. If the government banned capital punishment then most of the criminals will go to jail and come out soon and do crime again & again, but if their is capital punishment then their will be some fear in the mind of criminals and our society will be safe.

I am latha, I think it should be banned. Capital punishments may not stop crimes from happening. People need to be educated and explained the consequences rather than killing them. Society cheering and feeling satisfied after the death of the punished, looks like a medieval lynch mob celebrating the death of the sinner and not the sin. What do we achieve?Its a rich food for the politicians and the media. What can we do? as humans let us cherish the value of love, care, share and help one another to grow up putting aside the feeling of greed, jealousy and the lust for money and power!

Hi, as for as my opinion, if we want a safe life, so it shouldn't be banned. When criminals have fear, then they don't spoil the society. Someone said cause of crime is literacy, poverty, I want say if you do crime so why don't you do hard work for a good life. Crime only that person do, who don't want to do hard work. If capital punishment allowed for crime so it is good for society even good for a country and also for whole world.

According to me capital punishment should not be banned. Criminals think that they will be threw into the prison if they commit any crime. There is no mistake in their thinking because the rules of the INDIAN CONSTITUTION had made like that. They don't bother about jail although the punishment time is either 7 years or 14 years because jails are like their vacation spots. (example in the case of kasab). This is one of the reason for increasing in crime rate. But If India had followed the concept of capital punishment there would be no Mumbai attacks, no murders, no kidnappings. The fear of death (because of capital punishment) should shiver the criminals for thinking of crime. Then India absolutely can be peaceful country.

I appreciate opinions coming from different people but capital punishment is not punishment at all, it is revenge in its good form as people think. Punishment is, no matter how unimaginable the crime is or whether we are bound by sentiments or not is scientifically a procedure to correct mind of CRIMINAL. Whether a person killed thousands or not is unrelated as Punishment talks about correction and not past, if we talk about past don't call it PUNISHMENT it is revenge only! Secondly law is going thousands of years back when religion and psychology are going into future. People think more massive crimes a person commits the more punishment he deserves because we cannot bear the end results at all, true but the fact is that society uses two opposites GOOD and BAD. GOOD should be victorious over BAD, but terrible crimes like mass murders, rapes, burning people, children etc. Are committed by mentally insane people. No normal person has desire or interest or energy or even thought will ever come, so we are biologically safe first! People like Teresa, Jesus have inherent traits that make them peaceful. Ok they might have conscious will but they did not use it because they need not. On other hand criminals need to use additional will and change their mind from instincts and urges and this is not called REAL GREAT! psychopaths are born with distorted mind, is it their fault? They have no emotion called love. Love comes from brain. If any one has doubt they can just observe whether emotions are made with hands or come from within us without effort. If so a person who cannot love humanity has fault in nervous system. If a person takes anesthetic will he get pain? Still the person may remain wide awake with no pain in part injected with anesthetic. On similar lines criminals know what they are doing (barring a few who are completely mad and insane and do not know reality) but cannot feel love or empathy just like anesthetic REMOVES PAIN. So one second assume we are not born with this EMOTION or this emotion is minimal? One can tell their own answers?

If this is so then why delay in the case of Ajmal Kasab and Afjal guru? Hadn't they have done this offense?

Don't you think this is a derogatory to our democracy, to our so-called cultured society and to our crippled law. I think trialing these guys is a totally a waste of our money and time. Just hang these guys till death because these lunatics don't have respect to the lives of innocents. So, why to have mercy on them. I vehemently appeal to our netas and babus not to test our patience and provide them capital punishment. I admit there should not be any trial to these guys, just directly hang them, and I also appeal to our law-makers to bring the case of rape in this jurisdiction.

So If the person does any criminal activities and may be that it may be heinous but is giving death penalty is the only solution to curb out the crime from the country. And if death penalty is awarded to any murderer then what is the difference between that murderer and the judge except for that that judge has been given the right to award death penalty and the murderer has been not. We should kill the crime and not the criminal because the situation which is making him to do the crime we don't know. And also if one says that we should do tit for that with the criminal then what about are so called great politician who one after the other are involved in so many scams. Those criminal takes the life for one time and that too not of whole country but our politicians are killing the public day by day and bit by bit. Then who is the biggest criminal politician who is killing and will be killing us everyday or one who has murder few people. Then we should give death sentence to these politician also. I don't think that giving death sentence is right because up to what extent we will be doing this. We need to remove the crime first, other thing will be done automatically.

As per my perception, capital punishment is only on papers in India right now, as it is clear from the fact that Indian courts have sentenced near about 29 death sentence in last decade out of which only one person has been executed till date and the remaining are just on papers. In a recent judgement given by Session judge, kathua (j&k) in which six out of seven accused were granted death penalty (seventh one has already expired) but as is the condition prevalling in india, this sentence is also just on paper, to execute them is too hard on the part of concerned authority. Apart from that afzal guru has been awarded capital punishment since 2006. But till date there is no execution of that sentence because execution of afzal guru is now only a question of executing a crimnal, but a senstive poltical issue. Various neferous poltical beaurecrates in India and especially in kashmir are earning there bread on this vary issue ana centre is also aware of the fact that if afzal guru is hanged during there tenure, there poltical graph would come down in kashmir by a fair amount. So we can say that if person who have been granted death sentence are not hanged and if the sentence awarded to them is just on paper, then what is the fun of awarding this sentence, it's better that it should be banned now.

I think no one denied with this is the hard core reality that capital punishment should be given to the culprit not to the innocent. This is the duty of our investigating agencies like Crime Branch, NIA, CBI, and RWA etc. to investigate the matter properly and punish the culprits those who did heinous crime. But these agencies cannot work independently until or unless political influence and other kind of pressures on them. This is the main reason culprits are moving freely due to lack of evidences and innocent people become the prey. For this judiciary, should be free of ill will and punish the culprit as early as possible and during their imprisonment do not give them any kind of privileges. Recently, Manu Sharma, accused of Jassica Lal murder case got parole again and again for attending his brother marriage and taking care of her ill mother whereas instead of doing so he was enjoying his life in night club etc. Again, Kasab, accused of Bombay Bomb blast is still not punished and Govt. has spent crores of rupees on him. So Capital punishment is necessary so that people think before doing any heinous crime.

From my perspective, capital punishment should not be abolished as it will definitely help us to create a sense of fear in the minds of criminals. "Kill crimes not criminals" is a marvelous proposal but those stand for this theory should clarify how it can be put into practice. In order to save the innocent people from being punished, I strongly feel that, all loopholes in the judicial system should be closed. Only capital punishment awarded to hard-core criminals can set an example for other like minded persons and help the polity to bring down the whopping number of ever increasing criminal deeds. One more point, those liberal minds, who shed tears for the criminals must taken into account the pathetic state of the victims. Moreover, countries with stringent criminal and judicial systems always show a decreasing trend in such heinous acts as murder and theft. Take the example of Saudi Arabia where Islamic code of law is strictly implemented, the number of such dubious crimes are very low there. So capital punishment should be there in the larger interest of the country at least as a 'necessary evil'.

Hi everyone. I totally agree that capital punishment should be given, if a person have committed any heinous crime, but before that a transparent investigation should be done. Today most of the time main culprits (usually people with huge amount of money) uses poor as their weapon and commit heinous crimes and cannot ever get caught, because they bribe everybody and every system, and not only this they bring out false proofs against that poor guy and thus that poor fellow becomes victim. And our judiciary give punishment to that poor as it depends on proofs, doesn't matter however false it may be. I just want to ask why the poor became victim, just because he was poor or he has just trusted somebody? Capital punishment should be given to that criminal who has shadowed himself and used a poor person as his weapon. Indeed he should be hanged.

Hi Friends, Capital punishment is killing the person legally for capital crimes. There are so many criminals who escape from jails & commit even worst crimes. I think capital punishment can only avoid this.

As per me capital punishment is only on papers in India right now, as it is clear from the fact that Indian courts have sentenced near about 29 death sentence in last decade out of which only one person has been executed till date and the remaining are just on papers. In a recent judgement given by Session judge, kathua (j&k) in which six out of seven accused were granted death penalty (seventh one has already expired) but as is the condition prevalling in india, this sentence is also just on paper, to execute them is too hard on the part of concerned authority. Apart from that afzal guru has been awarded capital punishment since 2006. But till date there is no execution of that sentence because execution of afzal guru is now only a question of executing a crimnal, but a senstive poltical issue. Various neferous poltical beaurecrates in India and especially in kashmir are earning there bread on this vary issue ana centre is also aware of the fact that if afzal guru is hanged during there tenure, there poltical graph would come down in kashmir by a fair amount. So we can say that if person who have been granted death sentence are not hanged and if the sentence awarded to them is just on paper, then what is the fun of awarding this sentence, it's better that it should be banned now.

Capital Punishment shouldn't be banned. The one thing which comes under compulsion, whether the people like or not, they should follow for secure life. For example cell phones banned in class rooms like that. Similarly if the Capital Punishment comes under compulsion, there is surely a fear among the people to do violent crimes. Crimes should be reduced so the capital punishment should not be banned. Nowadays there is a lot of severe crimes, lots and lots of people are injured, dead because of such crimes. So in this point of view, we can't able to search whether the committed person has some backgrounds or in what situation they committed this one is utter waste. Capital Punishment should be there. "We should kill Crime not Criminals" its a nice thought, but killing only crimes means apart from criminals all others can go dead. So this punishment must be given to criminals first.

No I firmly believe that the capital punishment should be awarded and implemented so that it will set examples to the ones who are committing crimes without any fear of law and order. The fear that we cant get away easily after committing crimes such as murder rpe etc itself deflect the criminals from doing the crimes. For example that inglorious bas*d kasab should be hanged publically and the media should show the footage to the whole world as a message to the terrorist that India has lost its patients with the terrorist and every terrorist is going to face same punishment and then we can see how many of them will be ready to attack us.

@Harish. Actually if you look up statistics on capital punishment, mainly in the United States you will find that states that have banned capital punishment have less crime rates than states with capital punishment and since that state relieved capital punishment the criminal offence numbers have done nothing but gone down.

I agree with the statement 'we should kill crime not criminals'.But how can the crime be reduced without this type of punishment.It is not possible to create an awareness so that the criminals move away from the crime.We can take the example of the terrorist itself.Providing awareness doesn't seems to create any alteration in their minds.So in my opinion,only way would be the capital punishment.Punishment should be meant to leave a message of fear in the hearts of whoever trying to commit a brutal crime.This fear can obviously prevent them doing brutal crimes.As my friend said earlier,over 30 countries have abolished capital punishment and do not have any increase in crime.But at the same time it have not shown any decrease in rate.Whereas in countries having strict capital punishment have low crime rates. If regarding the punishment of innocent,its up to judiciary.They have been shown guilty in front of judiciary.Thats why they are been given punishment like dat So in my opinion,capital punishment should not be abolished

Hello everyone. According to my opinion capital punishment should not be banned because this in only way through which we can create fear in criminals otherwise they are like free bird. I agree with statement that "kill crime not criminals" but how we can achieve this without creating fear. If someone is taking the god gifted life for his/her profit then this earth is not made for such peoples or criminals they should be hanged.
