| Death warrant issued in Nirbhaya case, convicts will be hanged on January 22 |
The Tihar jail administration is also fully prepared for the hanging. Earlier too, it was revealed through media reports that preparations are being made to hang all the culprits together.
For this, a new platform has been prepared by the jail administration at a cost of about 25 lakh rupees, through which four people can be hanged together.
Earlier only two people could be hanged together in Tihar. The jail administration says that after the court order, there will be no delay in h Earlier in December, the court had heard the petition filed by Nirbhaya’s mother. Nirbhaya’s mother dismayed that the death warrant was not issued that day, saying that the court was only paying attention to the rights of the culprits, not ours.
However, even after the issuance of the death warrant, the culprits still have options for curative petitions and mercy petitions. If the convicts exercise any legal option before the 22nd, then the possibility of postponing the execution date may also increase hanging at the jail level.
Earlier, there were also reports of Nirbhaya’s culprits plotting a criminal case in jail. They are trying to get a new criminal case registered against them so that their execution can be postponed for some time.
