Such a situation wouldn't have arisen if any President, past or present , had used his or her discretion to judge each case on its merit or demerit considering the gravity of the offence committed by each convict in granting amnesty disregrding political affiliations without leaving room for anyone to beg from the incumbent to grant amnesty to selected convicts.

all the presidents thought it was expedient to have judicial contempt in the interest of the ruling party to suppress dissent and now you beg from a scumbag for mercy? what a shame

In a situation where a former Head and present opposition either beg or are silent about amnesties granted to convicted prisoners for reasons known to them, I feel sorry about all other convicts who are languishing in jails as life or long-term inmates whose only fault is, apart from the pronounced verdict upon conviction, that they do not belong to either the tri-forces, clergy or politicians judging by amnesties received by persons in the recent past, making our jidiciary and rule-of-law a mockery.
