The well-known Advocate of the Nirbhaya Case Convicts AP Singh, has yet again filed a case against Tihar Jail Authorities in the Patiala House Court of Delhi, for not providing him with documents of the accused needed for filing curative petitions on their behalf in the Supreme Court of India, clearly another way devised by him for postponing their execution. Reportedly, he requires documents of the two convicts – Pawan and Akshay. Pawan and Akshay have to file a curative petition in the Supreme Court. They also want to file mercy petitions before the President, allegedly. Earlier, the Supreme Court had already dismissed two curative petitions filed by the other two convicts, Vinay and Mukesh. The Patiala House Court is likely to hear the matter on Saturday, January 25, 2020. The first mercy plea in the Nirbhaya case had been rejected by the President of India, Ram Nath Kovind on January 17, 2020. Mukesh Singh, one of the four death row convicts in the Nirbhaya gangrape and murder case had filed a mercy plea before the President on 14 January, 2020. Singh filed the mercy plea with President on the day his curative petition was dismissed by the Supreme Court. Earlier in the matter, curative petitions were filed by two rape-murder convicts namely, Mukesh Singh and Vinay Sharma on January 13, 2020. Other convicts in the rape-murder case namely Pawan Gupta and Akshay Kumar Singh hadn’t filed curative petitions. The four convicts gang-raped and murdered a 23 year old woman in a moving bus in the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi. The paramedic student was raped on the intervening night of December 16, 2012, inside a running bus in south Delhi by six persons and severely assaulted before being thrown out on the road. She died on December 29, 2012, at Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore, where she was airlifted from Delhi for treatment. Seeing the ongoing trend of petitions that are being filed by convicts and the time that it might take to consider them, it is likely that the date of the execution of death sentence might be postponed. Such a postponement of punishment would bring about public dismay as it has already been seven years since the heinous crime took place. The delay in punishment can be attributed to the problems with our criminal justice system which has not been amended in entirety with laws dating back to the British era. Despite the increase in sexual offences, much emphasis has not been given to it if the Indian Penal Code, 1860 is considered.

नयाँ दिल्ली – भारतको राजधानी नयाँ दिल्लीमा सात वर्षअघि भएको सामूहिक बलत्कार काण्डका चारैजना दोषीलाई शुक्रवार बिहान साढे ५ बजे तिहाड जेलमा फांसी दिइएको छ । सन् २०१२ मा सार्वजनिक सवारीमा सवार २३ वर्षीया एक युवती (निर्भया) माथि हमला गरी सामूहिक बलात्कार गरेर मृत्युको मुखमा पुर्याउने चारै जनालाई दिल्ली अदालतले अन्तिम समय ५ मार्चमा फांसीको मिति तोकेको थियो । सोही तालिका बमोजिम चारैजना दोषी पवन गुप्ता, विनय शर्मा, मुकेश सिंह र अक्षय कुमारलाई शुक्रबार तिहाड जेलमा जल्लादले झुण्ड्याएका हुन् । दोषीलाई फांसी दिएसँगै पीडित निर्भयाका अभिभावकले छोरीले न्याय पाएको प्रतिक्रिया दिएका छन् । घटनामा ६ जनाको संलग्नता रहेको आरोप लागे पनि एक जनाले हिरासतमै आत्महत्या गरेका थिए भने एक जना घटनाको समय नाबालिग नै भनि सुधारगृहमा राखेर रिहा गरिएका थिए । बाँकी रहेका चार जनालाई चौथो पटक फांसीको सजाय सुनाएपछि शुक्रबार कार्यन्वयन गरिएको हो । फांसी दिइनु अघि दोषी पक्षका वकिलले बिहीबार सजायविरुद्ध पटियाला हाउस कोर्ट र दिल्ली हाई कोर्टमा गरेको याचिका खारेज भएका थिए । दोषीलाई फाँसीबाट जोगाउन मध्यरातमा दिल्ली हाईकोर्ट पुगेका दोषी पक्षका वकिलहरूलाई न्यायाधीशहरू मनमोहन र सञ्जीव नरुलाको इजलासले फिर्ता पठाइ दियो । त्यसपछि दोषी पक्षका वकिल अन्तिम समय मध्यरातमै सर्वोच्च अदालत समेत पुगेका थिए । तर सर्वोच्चका न्यायाधीश भानुमतिको अध्यक्षतामा बसेको विशेष इजलासले दलील कमजोर भएको भन्दै याचिका खारेज गरिदियो । यसअघि राष्ट्रपति रामनाथ कोविन्द समक्ष सजाय माफीका लागि दया याचिका पेश गरिएको थियो । उनले पनि यसलाई खारेज गरिदिएका थिए । राष्ट्रपति समक्ष याचिका पेस गरेकै कारण यसअघि ३ मार्चका लागि तोकिएको फाँसी २ मार्चमा रोकिएको थियो । त्यसपछि ५ मार्चमा अदालतले चौथो पटक मृत्युदण्ड दिइने मिति तोकेको थियो ।
