Why has this decision being delayed is beyond me and many others in the nation.
If he is guilty, he should have long been disposed of.
But the Congress is just playing a game of delaying (and most probably, eventually pardoning him in the name of Presidential Order) the hanging of Afzal.
And the media is also providing a platform for adding external pressure on the Government and the President on pardoning Afzal.
Slowly the debate will also reach the other western nations which will lead to more pressure on the Govt to pardon Afzal.
However the westerners still employ the same and also more hedious methods to get rid of their enemies, but bully us on not to do so.
Anyway, the punishment should not have been delayed so far as to reach the verdict of the President.
Afzal should have been hanged immediately and discretly immediately on being found guilty.
But the politicians (CONGRESS) want a different ball game and want to earn votes by riding high on Afzals head. Maybe he can get to be an MP or MLA if he is pardoned.
Who knows - this is India (which is sadly being ruled by Congress)
