“The Head of Dera has submitted a list of social services activities such as blood donor camps, eye camps, aid activities during natural disasters, to seek reducing punishment from the court.
The next command reads, “The object of punishment is not only to punish the guilty person but also to give him a guidance lesson that he should not commit such a violation in the future and also to print a warning note to others, who intend to take the law in their own hands.

Appeal is a continuation of the main cases and the same results cannot be predicted at this stage.
Therefore, the previous belief in the defendant in the two cases could not be a determining factor that guarantees the death penalty appreciation in this case, “the CBI court order stated.
