In modern world, the death penalty is the most notorious severe practice. Other harsh, physical forms of criminal punishment also referred to as corporal punishment have generally been eliminated in modern times as unsophisticated and unnecessary. In the majority of countries, contemporary methods of punishment, such as imprisonment or fines, no longer involve the infliction of physical pain. Although imprisonment and fines are universally recognized as necessary to control the crime. The nations of the world are split on the issue of capital punishment. About 80 nations have abolished the death penalty and an almost equal number of nations retains it. An accepted principle of the society is that every person has an equal right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Within that framework, an argument for capital punishment can be formulated along the following lines, some acts are so vile and destructive for society that they invalidate the right of the committor even to life. The privilege of living and pursuing the good life in a society is not absolute. It may be negated by behaviour that undermines the nature of a moral community. Living in a society expects that one honours the rightful claims of others. The utter and deliberate denial of life and opportunity to others, forfeits one's own claim to continue in the society. The preservation of moral community demands that the shattering of the foundations of its existence must be taken with utmost seriousness. The preciousness of life in a moral society must be so highly honoured that those who do not honour the life of others bias their own right to membership null and void. Those who violate the rights of others, especially if this is done persistently as a habit must pay the ultimate penalty.
