Six so called Taliban militants who were responsible for the murder of 132 pupils and 9 others at a military school in Peshawar last December have been sentenced to death. Their crime and the revulsion felt was responsible for the reinstatement of the death penalty in Pakistan.
Question do you think their sentence should be commuted to life imprisonment or, like the vermin they are, and that it probably an insult to vermin, should they be put down.
My view as a committed abolitionist is that they shouldn't be executed although I guess I am in a minority. But there must be ways of ensuring that their continued existence isn't very pleasant. If that persuades them to commit suicide they should not be discouraged
Anyone have some suggestions?
