| 11 death sentences in Godhra train burning |
| 2011-03-01 |
| Eleven of the convicted in the Godhra train burning case have received the death penalty by a special court on Tuesday. Twenty others were given life sentences. The court also punished them under various other sections, which will be concurrent with their life terms. Defense lawyer I M Munshi said the convicted will definitely appeal against their punishments. "It (the punishment) is very difficult to swallow. Till we get the copy of the judgement, we cannot comment much," he said. "We will definitely appeal against the verdict in the high court. Till the high court confirms the judgement, it cannot be implemented," Munshi said. |

| #1 If they are absolutely sure, then perhaps burning them at the stake would be fitting. |
