Demand for Death Penalty in 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots Case

The Sikh community demands the death penalty for former Congress MP Sajjan Kumar ahead of his sentencing for his role in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. They believe the crime qualifies as a 'rarest of the rare' and seek closure and justice for the victims and their families.

The Sikh community has intensified its demand for the death penalty for former Congress MP Sajjan Kumar as a special court prepares to deliver its verdict. He is convicted in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, involving serious allegations of orchestrating a pre-planned attack on Sikhs in Delhi.

The imminent judgment by Special Judge Kaveri Baweja is highly anticipated for its potential to hand down a landmark decision, as it relates to the killings of Jaswant Singh and his son Tarundeep Singh during the riots.

The protesters, led by Gurlad Singh, assert that justice has been long overdue, and deem the atrocities committed as 'rarest of the rare', urging the judiciary to deliver a death sentence to bring solace to the grieving community.
