Report of the Committee on Amendments to Criminal Law


Justice Verma recommends:
  • No death penalty even in the rarest of rare rape case
  • Do not lower juvenile age from 18 to 16 years
  • Raise minimum sentence from 7 to 10 years
  • Form a new constitutional authority like the CAG to deal with issues
  • Life imprisonment should mean ‘the entire natural life of the convict’
