Why death isn't enough

The supreme court recently upheld the death sentence of ajmal amir kasab. While many of us would consider this a victory it actually is far less than that. Even if he is hanged kasab will leave behind a trail of expenses much more than any other average Indian can. He was the only terrorist caught alive in the terror attacks in 2008. Since then the government has spent a whopping 50 crores on his 'security'. Ironically he can only add Rs 50 to that as that is the permissible budget for his execution. The jail authorities report that when he was handed the copy of the supreme courts order he took it with a smile. It is not surprising, the man has spent close to 4 years with minimal human interaction. Sure he was properly fed at all time but lonliness can be a cruel enemy even for the person responsible for killing 166 innocent people. When he was caught kasab was a young cold blooded terrorist with a penchant for killing. He has lived a full lifetime since then, his security being top on the governments list. If i google my name i hardly get anything, but google ajmal kasab and you get tons of stuff. The guy even has a wiki page to his name!! He has enjoyed the hospitality of the Indian government, frequently made to the front pages of the leading newspapers. Food and shelter was never a problem for him but after a point that seemed to be redundant. With hardly anyone to talk to kasab must having been craving for human interaction. Seeing that there was no way for him to ever get that, no path for redemption for him death sentence must have been kind of a relief for him. Four years in prison must have wiped out any fear of death that was left in him. Without his remorse,grief and fear the execution would be simply putting an end to a very expensive drama.If only had he died in the counter attacks...
