Justice or Cruelty?

Death penalty is such a controversial issue. There are people who are in favour of such a punishment because the say that if someone killed someone else for robbery, revenge, etc must be punished by law in the same way. However, there are people who believe that forgiveness is the best therapy and help that government could give them.

A recent research has found that those prisoners who are injected with the lethal injection suffer from great pain before actually dying. The chemicals are so strong that they still feel the pain after being injected with anaesthetic. Because of these findings, anti death penalty campaigners and lawyers presented a claim asking for the dissolution of this kind of cruel punishment.

As a result, a number of death sentences will be delayed till judge get to an agreement. What is important to consider as regard this issue is the fact that criminals should be punished with justice and no cruelty.
