Women criminals can be shown leniency, says Supreme Court of India

The usual plea for leniency from women is children and, yet, this carries no weight for men who have children to provide for. This is not only applicable to India, it is universal.

Yeah, because having kids raised by a convicted criminal is a really good idea. /s

Also, same news reported in a twister manner in another new paper:

"Being a woman can’t be ground for lesser punishment: SC on plea of leniency"
