Amnesty International expresses 'disappointment' over Yakub's verdict

Bengaluru, July 29 (ANI): Amnesty International on Wednesday expressed disappointment over the dismissal of Yakub Memon's plea against his scheduled execution tomorrow in connection with the 1993 Mumbai blasts case, saying the death penalty is a cruel and inhuman punishment. Yakub Memon is expected to be hanged inside the Nagpur jail at 7 a.m. tomorrow. The apex court had earlier dismissed the curative petition of Yakub. A three-judge bench comprising Justices Dipak Misra, Prafulla C Pant and Amitava Roy said proper procedure was followed in disposing of Yakub's curative petition.
