Till December 2023, the Indian judiciary has sentenced 1,303 people with death penalty  and 561 Indians are on the death row and only 8 have been executed in last 21 years .

Abstract:

Public perception about capital punishment in Pakistan has changed in the last few years. This perception is determined by numerous factors i.e., awareness about crimes and punishment. Capital punishment is very dangerous form of punishment which is used to control the serious crimes and consider as deterrence for the potential criminals. The risk of innocent execution and flaws in the police investigation system were also reason to oppose the capital punishment. It is quantitative cross-sectional study. According to Pakistan Crimes Statistics, crime rate is increasing day by day. Existing Lit

Abstract:

The moral argument contends that crimes deserve retribution, that to impose the deserved punishment is to do justice, and that justice is a moral requirement, an end in itself, independent of any useful effects. The moral desirability of justice can be explained, but not demonstrated in non-deontological fashion. In penal matters, justice and deserved retribution are synonymous. It is for the sake of justice that we try to punish the guilty and not the innocent. Innocents do not deserve punishment. Because of justice, we would not impose punishment on them, even if it were useful to do so.

<strong><em>“Punishments to culprits pronounced in the courts of justice for the crimes and wrongdoings have been usually used as a form of remedy as well as a sample lesson for the citizens.  This system is not only practiced at present but it is carried from the time immemorial.

Abstract:

The article aims to reveal key trends in the studies of the problems of criminal punishment based on the analysis of Russian dissertation theses in the past decade (2010–2019). The authors stress that the problems of punishment are «eternal» for Russian and Western doctrines of criminal law, although there is some difference in their research trends. The authors conclude that Russian doctrine preserves continuity in its definition of punishment as a major category of criminal law, as well as of its attributes and goals. In 1990–2000s there were some attempts to renounce the penal nature of pun

Abstract:

Capital punishment, also known as death penalty, is the execution of a criminal who has been sentenced to death by a court of law for a serious felony. The most severe type of punishment is known as the death penalty. The most outrageous and revolting crimes against humanity are punished by it. The death sentence has always been the consequence of such acts, despite the fact that the definition and extent of such crimes varies by country, state, and era. The execution of a person who has been granted a death sentence after being proven guilty of a crime by a court is known as capital punishmen

Abstract:

In its treatment of capital punishment Amnesty International gives a central place to the suffering of the prisoner. Two quite distinct forms of suffering are relevant here. There is the psychological anguish of the person awaiting execution; and there is the physical suffering which may be involved in the execution itself. It is suggested that if we reflect clearly on this suffering we will conclude that the death penalty involves cruelty of a kind which makes it quite unacceptable. It is to be condemned on the same ground as torture is to be condemned: on the ground, that is, that it involve

Public opinion surveys show that the American public favors capital punishment. This article examines the attitudes of 307 inmates about capital punishment. The respondents, especially the most violent offenders, favored capital punishment for some crimes when applied to others, but not to their own criminal activity. Moreover, they did not see capital punishment as a deterrent and implied that it reinforces their violent perspectives. Incarcerated offenders apparently feel as strongly as other citizens about capital punishment, but perhaps for different reasons. The findings suggest that addi

Shari’ah as a legal system of law in Islam is greatly misunderstood by a cross section of the intellectuals due to the prescription of capital punishments in the legal system. The paper provides explanation for capital punishment in the Shari’ah using the absolute sources of Islam (Qur’an and Sunnah) and to explain that the Shari’ah and Islamic system provide for reform, forgiveness and pardon. The paper concludes that the revulsion against the Shari’ah and its prescriptions is misplaced as Islamic system is replete with prescriptions of mercy and pardon for offenders.

The death penalty in Indonesia is still maintained to combat crime within the Indonesian criminal law reform.

Indonesia itself has overshadowed the death penalty with a form of legality according to international law so that the position of Indonesia that still maintain the death penalty cannot be blamed.

However, the legal condition in Indonesia is currently heavily criticized by the people, especially the small people.

The condition of justice law in the increasingly bad state of Indonesia greatly affects the health and democratic forces in Indonesia.
