JUSTICE DONE

-

Hats off to the SC for its confirmati­on of the death sentence on the perpetrato­rs of the 16/12 Delhi rape and brutal killing. Justice was done to her though the judgement was delayed. Considerin­g the inhuman killing and rape of the young woman, the culprits should have been sent to the gallows within a short span of time. Still, this judgement is bound to send a powerful message to criminals who see women as easy prey.

Minhaj Mohiuddin Hyderabad Justice was delayed but not denied. The verdict on the brutal New Delhi rape was a symbolic judgement by the Supreme Court. By confirming the death sentence on the culprits for their brutal crime, the SC has sent out a powerful message. Capital punishment is a must for all rapist-killers. Minhaj Mohiuddin Hyderabad Union minister Maneka Gandhi’s statement describing the SC judgement as a "miracle’’ is an eye-opener. The government must ensure enough facilities are given to courts for time-bound judgements. Speedier justice will bring down the crime rate. Kantichand Rampuria Srikalahas­ti Hyderabad I hail the historic Supreme Court and endorse Ms Maneka Gandhi’s statement that the judgement is a miracle. The courts should give stern punishment to rape convicts. It is time for the government to repeal the Juveniles Act and see that the sixth accused in the case is also sent to the gallows.
