The four convicts in the Nirbhaya gangrape and murder case on Sunday contended in the Delhi High Court that since they were sentenced to death by a common order, they have to be executed together and cannot be "singled out". The lawyers appearing for the four convicts -- Mukesh Kumar (32), Akshay Singh (31), Vinay Sharma (26) and Pawan Gupta (25) -- told the high court that some of them cannot be singled out for execution and neither the Centre nor the Delhi government has the power under the rules to do so.
