Speed News: SC affirms death sentence of Nirbhaya case convicts, rejects review pleas

The convicts in the sensational Nirbhaya gangrape and murder case will face the gallows, with the Supreme Court on Monday reaffirming their death sentence holding that "no grounds" have been made out to review the verdict. However, these death row convicts still have judicial redressal for a re-examination of the dismissal of their appeals and review pleas by way of a curative petition, which is the last legal remedy left for curing the defects, if any, in the judgement. Before facing the gallows, the convicts can also seek mercy from the President. Watch News Nation’s special show Speed News to stay updated with all the latest news all over the world.
