That's great news! Those who are working to destabilize the country with their acts of terror must be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Congratulations to the Pakistani authorities.

There should only be death sentences for rented terrorists but the courts & politicians are too scared to punish these rented terrorists & this results in more terrorism in Pakistan.
