Capital-punishment should be abolished because we can't take a thing that we can't return.

Capital punishment should be given to the rarest of the rare crime. In a democratic country like India people should have the right to life. And while punishing we should think of the right of innocent people in general, not of the accused who did the heinous crime.

Capital punishment should be there or not. It should be decided by voting by public through by FREE SMS so that all public should vote. Any political party if gives assurance that they will implement punishment of hanging for all personnel involved in murder/rape or gang rape without consent/kidnapping for sexual assault/for brothel/extortion/bank robbery/anti national cases directly or indirectly will come to power with majority without any alliance.
A Court deciding capital punishment should be reviewed by a bench of 3 judges (whose names should not disclosed to media) of higher Court on getting appeal within 3 months of judgement given by lower Court.
But a person killing a person who killed his own family members should not be given capital punishment though he should not take law in his hands. Learned judges should take in to consideration all pros & cons of the cases before giving his final verdict.
No mercy petitions to president should be allowed or if allowed it should be decided within a week. Then only the strength of criminals will be reduced and actual capacity of Tihar will be maintained. People supporting no capital punishments should think nowadays jails becomes university of technology for criminals to learn new techniques.
Even a single criminal will not change if goes to jail for major crimes. Rape could be averted if old system of child marriage is comes again with fixing minimum age by the Doctors and also by banning of Horoscope matching system so that people get marry in time. This is my personal opinion, may be a public opinion.

A crime should be treated as a crime, the criminal is NOT the victim who is need of counselling! the problem in this case is that the crime in question is not balanced with the necessary punishment and hence the crime to the perpetrators loses all severity as an act against justice against nature itself. The people who commit these atrocities lack empathy, they lack morals and as such they are a direct threat to the very fabric of society and should be first and foremost treated as such. With the flimsy laws in place we lay helplessly vulnerable to such vices. We must first remove such elements and having removed them. Having said that not all crimes are the same, but every case should be put through severe scrutiny and not in a biased light with the policy of keeping the accused in a "benefit of doubt" until proved guilty state. Punishment is a must and as per the severity of the situation in terms of the criminal's position capital punishment worth consideration. Then and then only can we afford to consider if redemption is even possible. Capital punishment is an undeniable necessity which cannot be ruled out if we ever hope to cleanse society and the lack of it only goes to show weakness on the part of the law of the land.

According to my opinion, capital punishment should not be banned. Because people don't fear punishment and they do again and again. The major cause is increasing the murders, rapes etc. So, the capital punishment is mandatory for criminals.

Capital Punishment should be allowed to stay because Eradicating it will mean that Nigeria will be subtly towing the path of Sodom and Gomorrah. Furthermore, Eradicating it will me that we are telling God who authorized whoever kill somebody should be killed. It should be noted that the 2 (two) Thieves with Jesus on the Cross were Armed Robbers. One of them repented But Jesus told him that he should face the Death Penalty first, then He would be with him in Paradise.
What I think should be done is that the Judicial Commission should amend the Professional Ethics for Legal Practitioners to the effect that any Lawyer who want to obtain the title of S.A.N. (Senior Advocate of Nigeria) should try to win at least 2 (two) Criminal Cases with Capital Punishment attach to them. This is because Our Lawyers are Lazy! and this is shown in the Judgement that is pronounced in the Court.
