Mumbai, May 4 (IANS) Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab is "Satan, a devil, a snake in human form" and must get the death penalty for murder, the prosecution in the Mumbai terror attack case said Tuesday.
In his arguments a day after Kasab was pronounced guilty by Special Judge M.L. Tahaliyani, Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam said Kasab had been convicted for mass murder and waging war against India.
"If all these are read together, the maximum punishment is death and minimum is life imprisonment," Nikam said.
"I am for maximum punishment and this submission is not with a sense of revenge - we don't seek barbaric justice - justice should meet the end," Nikam argued.
Tahaliyani had Monday pronounced Kasab, 23, guilty on all 86 counts for the November 2008 mayhem that left 166 Indians and foreigners dead and 244 injured in Mumbai.
