The Telangana High Court has decided that the harshest punishment is needed for serious acts of terror. This was clear when they upheld the death penalty for five men connected to the 2013 Dilsukhnagar bombings in Hyderabad. These bomb blasts tragically killed 18 people and injured 131 more at a busy shopping area.
The court described the attackers’ actions as “calculated savagery” and said they did it to create fear in society. In a lengthy 357-page ruling, the judges stated that such terrible acts deserve the toughest punishment under the law. This is because terror attacks threat the safety of everyone.
The court’s judges, K Lakshman and P Sree Sudha, emphasized the need for strong justice when innocent people are harmed. They labeled the bombings as “acts of war” against the country. The judges noted that the crime was not just about harming people, but it was also a serious challenge to the nation’s safety.
The five men—Asadullah, Tabrez, Zia, Mohd Tahseen, and Ajaz—were found guilty of planning these terrible attacks, which involved advanced explosives and were done in a very organized way. The court said these crimes, committed on February 21, 2013, were shocking and showed extreme bad intentions.
Although the court looked at reasons like mental health reports and chances for rehabilitation, they decided that this case met all the criteria to impose the death penalty according to Supreme Court guidelines. The judges stressed that when a crime is so shocking, society demands the strongest punishment. This isn’t just about getting back at the criminals, but about showing that justice is important.
