Instant death for 174 mumbaikars, a chance to appeal for the one who killed them

Ajmal Kasab is 30th on the list. And his best well wishers now are the 29 people ahead of him in line, who will give Kasab a long-life. The last man hanged in India was somewhere around 1995.

Im sure even the other 29 on the list would not like to be hung by the same noose as Kasab.The judge has already declared that he has no humanitarian ground left to consider any leniency. There is substantial,circumstancial and all other types of evidence available against Ajmal Kasab. Does he even deserve the right to appeal or file a mercy petition? Can we afford to keep him in our prisons and risk making him a commodity for ransom.

Keeping him alive will only make him the poster boy of other terror groups. Either execute him mercilessly or send him back to this mother and drive home the message that there is no glory in terror, and that there is no holy war.The victim's families will never achieve any closure, no matter what Kasab's fate is, but let them not get the feeling that so much consideration should be given to his life, when the lives of their loved ones were snuffed out in an instant.

I wish Kasab goes back to his home and gets his bottom spanked by his mother. Newspapers must carry pictures of that side by side with Faesal Qureshi' mother kissing him for topping the civil services exam. The latter image will tell wannabe terrorists that the resilience of human spirit will always triumph over listless ideologies.
