Arputham Ammal — mother of A.G. Perarivalan, who is on death row in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case — on Monday appealed to Congress president Sonia Gandhi that she speak out against the sentence, reports The Hindu.
Perarivalan, Santhan and Murugan are on death row after their mercy petitions were rejected by the President.
Referring to a letter Ms. Gandhi had written in 1999 to the former President, K.R. Narayanan, seeking pardon for the accused, Ms. Arputham Ammal said: “Sonia Gandhi should once again say that the lives of the three persons sentenced to death should be spared.”
