First paragraph (Teaser):

Hope, you are well aware of the debate going on in the media on the issue of death penalty. For the first time the debate has been joined by the President of India, with whom twenty mercy petitions involving the lives of fifty convicts, are pending. The Home Ministry had advised the President not to pardon these convicts, but to reject their mercy petitions in toto. The Honourable President instead has returned the files of those convicts back to the Home Ministry to reconsider the execution of the death sentence to these persons on humanitarian, socio-economic and other grounds.

[MAOIST_REVOLUTION] An Appeal to Join All India Convention and Protest March against Death Penalty

An Appeal to Join All India Convention and Protest March against Death Penalty

Friends,

Hope, you are well aware of the debate going on in the media on the issue of death penalty. For the first time the debate has been joined by the President of India, with whom twenty mercy petitions involving the lives of fifty convicts, are pending. The Home Ministry had advised the President not to pardon these convicts, but to reject their mercy petitions in toto. The Honourable President instead has returned the files of those convicts back to the Home Ministry to reconsider the execution of the death sentence to these persons on humanitarian, socio-economic and other grounds.

You remember that the All India Committee against Death Penalty had organised an All India Convention last year in the month of May at Delhi. In the convention five convicts of Bara incident, whose death penalties had been confirmed by the Supreme Court, was the focus of deliberations. Their mercy petitions too are pending with the President.

In the convention which we are going to hold, we would be taking up the question of death sentence in general, and demanding the abolition of death sentence from the Indian Judiciary System.

We appeal to you to attend this Convention and Protest March in front of the Home Minister to raise voice against the inhuman, biased and barbarian punishment of death penalty.
