'Death sentence to Italian marines will be an act of war'

I say go for it, the Italians can't do jack and India has it's pride on the line.

In such a scenario the most interesting thing to watch out for will be the reaction of US, UK and another NATO countries
 
The killing was not pre meditated and the circumstances when the killing happened are different than usual, hence should not fall under rarest of rare cases.

It has nothing to do with rarest of rare. But, what the penalty is provided if prosecution happens under certain laws.

We dont have pur pride on the line. However Congress has its balls in a twist over this one.
Its an election year. Any other time they could have wriggled its way out of this massive diplomatic **** fest and given both themselves and the Italians a face saver.
They can't appear to do the same now. Anyway you look at it its a loose loose scenario for us now.
Heads should roll in the foreign affairs ministry for this cluster ****. First the devyani **** up and now this.
God save us.

Weren't the Italians returned for well not facing the Death Penalty?
 
They are not gonna be handed death sentences,as its too rare in India.

Read my post above. Supreme court categorically defines "the rarest of the rare" cases where a death sentence can be given. This is not one of those cases. There is no chance of them getting a death sentence. Italy knows it too. This false bravado is for their domestic consumption.

There is no chance of them facing the death sentence, regardless of GoI's promise to Italy.
 
What do you have to do to get death sentence in India? Something worse than taking down Indian fishermen? Just curious.

Please read the Act under which they NIA is recommending them to be tried. Sentences are awared as per the list of penalties depending on which IPC/ Act the case is filed. If the NIA has its way, then the only penalty is the death penalty.

What act is that? A link would be useful.
 
It takes us years to hand a death sentence to terrorists let alone Italian, it will never happen since the remote controller for the current government is one.
 
If the NIA proceeds to prosecute under this, which is what they want and the court agrees, then death penalty is certain. Only recourse is Presidential pardon.

SUPA

The problem for the NIA is that, the NIA Act doesn't allow the agency to prosecute a simple murder case, under the IPC's section 302, so it has no choice but to invoke SUPA.

To give you an idea of how rare it is in India, there have been only 52 executions carried out in the last 66 years. Most other death sentences have been commuted to life terms.
 
India has really been screwing the pooch recently when it comes to foreign relations. First the US ambassador scandal, and now this. Diplomacy, you're doing it wrong

We noticed the huge difference it made.

Do either the Italians or the Americans understand anything other than a kick in the balls? Since when did they start doing diplomacy?

Sonia Gandhi kiski taraf se ladegi?

Just to prove that we can be classy and subtle? Well done.

Was that supposed to be funny? because there are much worse Indian stereotypes.

Presumably you know them all. Or knew them all but for this one.

What was the point you were trying to make, btw?
