Mohd.Chaman vs State (N.C.T.Of Delhi) on 11 December, 2000

75. Mohd. Chaman v. State (NCT of Delhi), (2001) 2 SCC 28 was a case where the convict had raped a one-and-a-half year old child who died as a result of the unfortunate incident. This Court found that the crime committed was serious and heinous and the criminal had a dirty and perverted mind and had no control over his carnal desires. Nevertheless, this Court found it difficult to hold that the criminal was such a dangerous person that to spare his life would endanger the community. This Court reduced the sentence to imprisonment for life since the case was one in which a “humanist approach” should be taken in the matter of awarding punishment.
