Last Updated On 09 February,2016 About 5 hours ago

The recent survey was carried out among a sample of 1826 men and women in rural and urban areas.
ISLAMABAD (Web Desk) - According to a Gilani Research Foundation Survey carried out by Gallup Pakistan, sweeping majority of Pakistanis (92%) support the rule of hanging terrorists.

A nationally representative sample of men and women from across the four provinces was asked, “Some people support the rule of hanging terrorists while others are against this. Please tell, to what extent do you support or oppose this rule?”

In response, 64% said that they support it a lot, 28% said that they support it to some extent and 6% said that they oppose it to some extent. 2% said that they oppose it a lot.

The study was released by Gilani Research Foundation and carried out by Gallup Pakistan, the Pakistani affiliate of Gallup International.

The recent survey was carried out among a sample of 1826 men and women in rural and urban areas of all four provinces of the country, during December 21 – December 28, 2015.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif lifted a six-year moratorium on executions on December 17, 2014, a day after Tehreek-e-Taliban militants massacred more than 150 people -- mostly children -- at Army Public School (APS) in Peshawar.

Since that time Pakistan has executed more than 300 death row convicts.

Amnesty International estimates that Pakistan has more than 8,000 prisoners on death row, most of whom have exhausted the appeals process.

Supporters argue that the death penalty is the only effective way to deal with the scourge of militancy in the country. But critics say the legal system is unjust, with rampant police torture, poor representation for victims and unfair trials.

Keeping Kasaab alive cost us Rs 2 crores in 3 yrs
Hanging him only cost a few thousand

Its better to kill then feeding terrorists

 

[Moonlight]

Rest 8% includes politicians (not all though), terrorists themselves, Moom Batti mafia (Asima Jhangir at the top).

 

[Talwar e Pakistan]

This is bad, most of these 'terrorists' were uneducated and gullible young men who lived miserable lives in remote areas - its the State's fault for not providing them proper education and other basic needs. They know nothing of Islam - and follow anything blindly ; a bearded man old man could tell them that Pakistan Army does devil worship and they will believe it.

Why do they have to be punished for that? Its best to send them to de-radicalization centers and teach them about Islam and how to be a good citizen.

Thats a wrong and insignificant question to ask, as far as pakistan is concerned.

India as well, or otherwise we'd see a rope around Modi.

 

[Bratva]

The KEY question is who is a terrorist according to pakistanis? A suvery had also shown a majority pakistanis were sad when Laden was killed.

So this poll means nothing really when lots of UN proscribed terrorists operate freely in Pakistan.

You are as ignorant about ground realities in Pakistan as Donald trump would be. We know our enemies. Not Like those indians sitting in UAE who doesnt even know who latifullah mehsud is and how he was arrested.

Why not come to Pakistan and ask for Pakistanis themselves instead of relying on some shody journalism. There are 180 million Pakistanis. Just as There 1 billion Indians and in them there might be 1 million Hindu extremist lunatics in it like Colonel purohit, Modi sarkar RSS type guys who kill muslims and indians and then put blame on Pakistan. Does it mean I should generalize and include u in the list of 90 percent idiot hindu extremist lunatics

 

[senses]

The other 8% are terrorist themselves.

 

[Super Falcon]

Remaining 8 percent which dont want hanging is sitting in parliment mostly and in few mosqyes only few mosques

 

[The Sandman]

Good now those remaining 8% who will be politicians, mullahs etc should be given life sentence

I am strictly against hanging inhuman practice just Shoot them at the spot .....no muqadma no FIR....faisla on the spot....

 

[The Eagle]

The hanging of terrorists by military court was badly hurting the paychecks of the then CJ. We all know that hang to death punishment was stalled on the wish of EU and Human Rights Organizations which are indeed the lovers of those perpetrators in Pakistan. People including the advocates who opposed the formation of Military Court and hangings of terrorists are indeed sympathizers of terrorists beneath. The candle mafia is paid enough to come with such conspiracies but wouldn't succeed at all In'Sha'ALLAH. Justice will be served in the end. Need to send those 8% to Afghanistan.
