Capital Punishment should be Banned or Allowed?

I believe that CP should be abolished.

Life is all about being given a Second Chance.

In this view, A person committing a crime should be subjected to Rehabilitation Rather than Imprisonment.

A person should be made aware of his wrong deeds rather than being subjected to rigorous imprisonment and CP. A person commuting a crime has certainly Numerous Reasons behind it-may be unhealthy background, greed, jealousy, or any other motive. Everyone is aware of the fact of Judicial System and thus No one would Commit any sort of Crime for Fun or Experiment ation. And so it's necessary to understand the Criminal's mental state and treat accordingly to provide him a Better and Secure Life in Future. Our Constitution doesn't provide Right to kill any Human, and why should it?

If God is the one who gives us Life, it's He who should decide when He wants to take us Back to Him.

Thank You.

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.

Hi, I am Shruti.

I think it should be allowed.

Rape rates, murders etc are increasing day by day.

1. Jails would be populated and life imprisonment isn't cheered for our economy. We have more important fields where GDP is needed.

2. The criminal mush is tortured. Made to repent and then hanged to death. This would create a fear in the mind of people to commit crimes.

3. An eye for an eye makes the world go blind. But leaving that person unpunished won't get you back your lost eye! The pain given by a criminal must be returned to him with a penalty of death punishment.

4. Freeing a criminal * (including the juvenile 16-18) according to Indian CP will only support the youth to commit crimes without the fear of GOI.

This is a confusing question for me. I'm in favor of CP but then, there is one question that boggles me all the time. We all know that criminals commit a crime only when their mind is unsound and are anxious and not in a right state of mind. They do know it's wrong. But they can't control their emotions. Certainly, they must be having a fear of death but if they overcome it, it surely means their will to kill is greater than the fear of death. So How does killing criminals work to reduce crimes?

According to my opinion, It should be there in a rape case and in terrorist activities. These type of people should be hanged till death in public place incase of jails.

Capital punishment is a right way to reduce the terrorism as well as crime if the government take the decision for imprisonment to terrorist and rapist. Then it will be increase the cost of government. Thus for reducing the rape case or terrorism.

The government should take the decision of capital punishment against rapist as well as terrorism. At last, I will say that if capital punishment will give to terrorist then terrorist will think thousand times before committing any terrorist activities.

Capital punishment should not be abolished, instead, modify it to the way Government of Saudi Arabia does.

Rapists and Terrorists should be hanged to death in front of public, not in jails in early mornings, they will get sympathy and publicity for free of cost!
Thank you.

Yes, capital punishment should ban. Are we still out of the crime are we still out of the terrorists?

No because only criminals are being eradicated not the crime.

Capital punishment should not be abolished, instead, rapists and terrorist criminals must be killed.

Death penalty reduces drugs, murder and rape.

Criminals commit crime because they know that they won't be killed and that they spend a short time in prison especially here in some countries criminals use witchcraft for their terrorist activities.

It's the crime to be eliminated from the country, not the criminals. The criminals should be given counseling. Killing them doesn't give anything to the country.
