Good News Patriots-Ajmal Kasab Hanged at Yerwada Jail in Pune



The Maharashtra Home Ministry on Wednesday confirmed that 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks convict Ajmal Kasab was hanged at 7.30 am at Pune's Yerwada jail. President Pranab Mukherjee had rejected his mercy plea on November 8, said Maharashtra Home Minister RR Patil.
"His execution is a tribute to the victims of 26/11 attacks," said Patil. Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan told CNN-IBN that Kasab was shifted out of Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail to Pune's Yerwada Jail two days ago. Yerwada Jail is meant for convicts and has provision for their execution. The CM admitted that secrecy had been maintained over Kasab's execution as they did not want to compromise the security situation in any way.
Sources said that Kasab was provided all information before the execution and the jail manual was followed. When he was asked for his last wish and whether he had a will, Kasab said no. Yerwada Jail sources said that the High Court had been asked to inform Kasab's family.

It is a tregedy that the innocent young people can so easily be lured into becoming religeous fanatics on the unknown promise of heavenly pleasures. Hope other youngsters understand the value of univerasl brotnherhood rather than keeping religon above humanity.
