THINK TWICE

It was interesting to read the article (“Capital punishment” 29 March Page 07) by Khagendra N. Sharma, considering the number of heinous crimes committed recently by inhuman culprits in different parts of the country. After the dreadful rape and murder of a seven year old girl, people have started seriously talking about reviving the provision of death penalty that was in place in Nepal before 1990 for some specific crimes.

Notwithstanding the above, there should be serious deliberations on this issue before coming to a final decision. Abduction and murder of children and adults for ransoms, murder of journalists for revealing the truth of the crimes, killings of political opponents and rape and murder of innocent girls and women, are glaring examples of serious crimes. Considering the increase in these kinds of crimes, the time has come for the government to act soon, may be by reviving the death penalty, to discourage people from committing such crimes.
