NEW DELHI: Pawan Jallad, the hangman from Meerut jail who is scheduled to hang the four convicts in the Nirbhaya case, reached Delhi on Thursday evening.
Before leaving the Meerut jail premises, Jallad said ‘Jai Hind’ to fellow staffers. The hanging is schedule to be held on Saturday morning. A dummy practice will be carried out on Friday to check the ropes and the weight of the convicts.
Jallad will be paid Rs 15,000 per execution.
Wearing beige pants, maroon shirt and a black jacket, a clean shaven Jallad arrived at Tihar. A team of three officials from Tihar had gone to Meerut to bring him to Delhi.
Meanwhile, Tihar Jail authorities are exploring the option of hanging the four convicts one by one as there is no provision in the jail manual mandating hanging of co-convicts together. Sources said legal opinion is being taken on this.
