Abstract

The most debatable topic nowadays is capital punishment. Where most European countries are abolishing it to align with humanistic approach but some countries still retain this punishment. In our country although there is a shift from sentence of death to lesser sentence but there is also a clear intention of maintaining capital sentence to meet the ends of justice in appropriate cases.
