the chief investigator of the assassination of former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi, D.R. Karthikeyan, asked for a "uniform policy" on commuting death sentences. Speaking on the sidelines of a business meet here, Karthikeyan, the former director of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) who was responsible for securing convictions for the killers of Gandhi, said, "There should be a government policy on clemency for death row convicts." "This policy should be uniform for all death row convicts and clemency reasons should not differ from case to case," said Karthikeyan.
