Kidnappers and extortionists must be given the toughest sentence. There should be a provision for capital punishment for those involved in abduction and killing.

Basudev Ghimire, student

Those who kill others do not have right to live. Abductors and murderers should be hanged.

Bishnu Gurung, housewife

There should be a tough sentence for kidnappers, extortionists and murderers. Criminals should never be treated mercifully. I think we should have provision for capital punishment in the new constitution.�

Sandira Buddhacharya, student

Heinous crimes like abduction and murder are growing because of weak law enforcement. Tougher laws should be introduced and the policing must be made effective.

Prem Prakash Subedi, trader

Public awareness is necessary to minimise crime along with tougher criminal law. Criminals should not be given immunity under political or other kind of pressure.

Miru Sharma, student

There should be tough punishment for criminals so that nobody dares committ the same crime.
