Life sentence(With torture and social stigma in case of violent crimes with chances of parole only under the supervision best of psychologists and psychiatrists)

I think they should get mental or psychological treatment in jail and educate them for the betterment of the society as mostly uneducated people become serious criminals. Criminals who have committed financial frauds should be enforced to do some mild labour so that they would be employed in some way and their salary to contribute the recovery from the fraud

I dont support death penalty as i think is an easy way out and it gives too much power to the judiciary to set a standard for death penalty. How do they get to decide which convict deserved death penalty and which doesnt.

Used as a deterrent but never actually carried out. Terminally ill prisoners are allowed to choose euthanasia and it is published as a death penalty to scare people into abiding the law.

Not in all cases , more in favor of torturous imprisonment for un reform able criminals and terrorist, human right should not be applied to them and they should be treated as Pile of refuse. But only in the rarest of the rare cases

Only if not killing the criminal would worsen the problem; if Osama bin Laden had been imprisoned not killed, a string of terrorist attacks would have broken out demanding his release. In such circumstances, the criminal must be executed.
