Assertion:
Many countries have abolished capital punishment for murder.
RI. Capital punishment is nothing but murder by the state.
RII. On humanitarian grounds, every criminal must be given sufficient time to realise his misdeed and repent it.
Answer: D
Correct answer: both RI and RII are the reason for the assertion.
These are the two standard grounds on which abolition has been argued. RI is the objection in principle - that a state which kills is doing the very thing it condemns; RII is the humanitarian case - that an offender should be left the chance to repent and reform. Both have driven the abolition movement, so both are the reason.
