Death penalty also known as
capital punishment or ececution, it is the sentence of death by court as
punishment for a crime. People who recieve the death penalty typically are
convicted of murders and similar capital crimes. About one third of the
countries in the world have law that allow death penalty.
I personally agree with the capital punishment as it creates a sense of fear in
the minds of the criminals or she/he will think twice before comitting a crime.
It also makes the family of the victim get justice and they will be satisfied
with the decision.
Death penalty should only be
imposed for the most serious crime and never upon those who are under 18 years
of age at the time of their crime cause its inhuman act and most of the
countries are agreed on this rule.
Capital punishment varies from country to country, place to place. In religion,
being a muslim, has to follow the islamic shariah which includes capital
punishment to the criminal or not. But only for very serious crimes, such as
rape and murder.
Now let's talk about the methods of execution. There are many methods of
execution used around the world including hanging, shooting, lethal injection
and electrocution, but its impossible to guarantee that any form of execution
will be quick and painless. From a technical point of view its impossible to
make execution quick and as painless as possible, if the staff of jail is
trained. Each method comes with its own set of rules. Electrocution and shooting
etc are very inhuman anf cruel methods in my point of view cause it give much
pain to victim as electrocution can burn the body flesh. Well hanging is the
best option if done right, hanging should be quick so the person dies instantly.
In the end, I just want to say that government should have takr the
responsibility to control crime rates and to set law and order in the country to
avoid such criminal activities so no one will commit crime anx will not face
death penalty.
