Delhi Police on Monday urged a Delhi court to award the death penalty to former AAP councillor Tahir Hussain and four others convicted in the murder of Intelligence Bureau (IB) officer Ankit Sharma during the 2020 Delhi riots, describing the crime as "heinous", "cold-blooded" and "diabolical".
The submissions were made before Additional Sessions Judge Praveen Singh, who was hearing arguments on the quantum of sentence for the five convicts.
