RIP

He repented a lot for what he did but his crime was too heinous to be pardoned.

Why the duck RiP??? It must have been UiH (unrest in hell)

He was contemplating of surrendering on pursuance of RaW for more than one year. It was only when his family discouraged him from surrendering he tried to flee and apprehended by Indian Intel.

This mean that he did not surrendered. So pardon on the ground that he surrendered which you are advocating is wrong.

Because he repented a lot for his act.

Justice is served at last. Yakub hanging forced so called eminent secular/liberal bleeding hearts to show their true face. They tried their best to find some loophole to save a Muslim. That dude who pulled out Nirbhaya's guts out in delhi rape case was also a muslim and they played the "he is a minor" loophole quite well.


"BS", the secular brigade fed him that he could be saved.

You seem to have a soft corner for a terrorist who killed 250 innocent people.

In the case of terrorism and murder, it is not the relatives who decide things, it is the judicial system....... by the way Rajiv gandhi was not only her husband, he was ex prime minister of India, and could have become prime minister in another 1 month of so........

You can legally take that point yes, but in life and death decisions, especially when the issue of hanging a woman is concerned some amount of leniency is shown. The idea that it was easy for Sonia Gandhi to forgive that woman is a grave error. I think instinctively she would have wanted her hanged after having her shredded to pieces.

he got what he deserve .

Salman khan is also a person who belives that he could eascape from justice becz of his fame and money. Thats why he showed courage to kill endangered animals and to drive his vehicle over peoples. His tweet is just a natural reaction based on fear of seeing his belives collapsing.

I can think of an easier reason....Dawood might have called him and asked him to tweet it.

Kind of weird that Yakub Memon and his lawyers never used that supposed assurance during the trial. Granted the lawyers would have been trying to portray him as innocent but it could have atleast been brought up during sentencing. Once the Supreme Court pronounced its verdict, it was always going to be difficult for any government, this or any other. If you allow this man a Presidential pardon, with the type of crime committed, who on earth are you going to execute ?

There have been problems with all the commuting that the SC has been doing on a very non-transparent basis and for frivolous reasons of delay and that does cause the whole system to look skewed considering that the previous execution was also of a Muslim. Had a whole bunch of people, mainly Hindus, been executed in the last few months, there would be almost no comment about this one.



He could not turn approver, he was held as a conspirator (you allow for people to turn approvers so that you can get at the conspirator/s). No one would have allowed him to get off.



Unfortunately.

What's your take on B Raman's analysis?

I honestly don't know. Initially, Raman's credibility gave me pause and I did think that maybe this was a mistake (the execution) but the more I hear & read, it no longer seems that cut & dry. The failure of Yakub Memon & his lawyers to ever mention it, Raman's own circumspection in not coming out with this article early and not making any attempts to intervene (he was alive when the SC heard the case) makes this bit very confusing. Granted Raman has an impeccable reputation but so do many who have disagreed with Raman. Who gave the assurance (if they were given)& was it backed at the highest level (on his own, any assurance would have meant nothing) are questions that simply have not been answered & with Raman dead, probably will never be answered.

Well I'm quite confused too. But then if the courts have decided, then that's that. In any case when the entire family was shifted before the blasts, I guess it might be surmised that sometime before the blasts he did come to know of it.

Repenting and avoiding death are 2 different thing. He het punishment for his dids. now why should we wish him after death also.
May be i am getting too much emotional.

I'm not confused from any love for the man or useless emotions of ethics or morality.

I'm just concerned that we have now near assured ourselves that we will not have guys turning approver or even getting caught alive.

Was he even responsible for what he was hanged?

Another afzal guru like hanging just cuz he is a muslim.
no direct and strong evidence against him yet.

scorpionx said:

Master of all scums, Mr.Dawood Ibrahim himself wanted to surrender and lot many before him right from the days of Khalistani movements. Only few of them are not brought to notice in front of media and ordinary public like you and me. Yakub was not captured while fighting, reportedly he was insisted to surrender. It was an Intelligence success rendering psychological overhand to pursue him to come back to India with his family. So, the argument of "Bal bhi nehi baka kar paya" would have sounded bit ridiculous if we assume people think in that way.

Good logic .... Tomorrow I will kill innocent ppl , hide in hostile country n then surrender to escape the capital punishment.... That's means everyone can enjoy the lame tactical blunders as you are trying to say.... That's absurd logic dada.... 23yrs passed 257 ppl killed ..... Still lamenting ......
Being soft or weak doesn't mean that you need to succumb to the mercy of these terrorist ..... Yes its challenge for our security agencies now n that's how its been always not a cake walk otherwise dawood would have been handling his mafia from Indian jail now....
In fact hanging of yakub would give a dire need to address the challenges of current n future security structure....
Though I m not completely discarding to your given points but terrorist should be dealt without any mercy .....

Utraash u are an insensitive man,something i already observed from ur posts towards me. I wud never support killer of any innocent indian, and iwont even agree with the logic that if any terrorist cooperated with police he shud be pardoned despite being guilty. Iwont .he did what he did, he has to pay.

But what if he isnt guilty.
But u wont understand ,u are a nation who hanged afzal guu after collective conscience sh1t,u are a nation who chose butcher of gujrat riots as ur PM.

I wont blame u ,when u ppl till day have never spoken for Kausar bano,iwont expect anything from u. Insensitivity has no cure no cure. I wont expect anyhting good coming out of u.
And yes tease me all u want over APS, its good, fresh wounds will always remind me who had the real hand in it under ttp's cover.
