| Apr 6, 2023 at 9:25 | comment | added | sfxedit | @IndianLawDropout As outlined by the Supreme Court, each sentencing is to be evaluated on its own merit, based on the crime and the criminal(s) involved. Even if the crime is the same, the criminals may have different personalities and different motives. | |
| Apr 6, 2023 at 9:21 | comment | added | sfxedit | @IndianLawDropout The crime was really heinous. It made national headlines for many months and the public outcry against it was so huge that it soon made international headlines. And the convicts were given their due process in the court, with even a 5 judge bench in the Supreme Court hearing the appeal of one of the convict. One of guilty was judged to be a juvenile and only sentenced to 3 years. If you want a more detailed analysis of that case I recommend asking in Law.SE. | |
