Justice Kurian Joseph, one of the senior-most judges of the Supreme Court, on Wednesday said the courts had been imposing the death penalty “arbitrarily and freakishly”. Justice Kurian, in his judgment while heading a three-judge Bench hearing the appeal of a man sentenced to death, said the test of “rarest of rare” had been “inconsistently applied” by courts. The other two judges, Justices Deepak Gupta and Hemant Gupta, disagreed that death penalty was “freakishly” imposed.

Which of the following judges believes that the courts have failed to uphold the principle of justice by imposing the death penalty arbitrarily and freakishly?
