BBC Asian Network - BBC Asian Network's Big Debate, Qasa Alom

Do you think that Islamic State suspects deserve the death penalty?

Qasa asks, do listeners think that Islamic State suspects deserve the death penalty, or is it morally wrong to sentence someone to death?

The UK would not oppose the use of the death penalty for two alleged Islamic State members if they are extradited to the US. How do you feel about this decision? Then, Qasa will be chatting about Mesut Ozil's decision to quit playing international football for Germany because of alleged racism in the sport. Do you think his decision justified? After that, would you go 'glamping' in the deserts of India? The Thar Desert already attracts over 200,000 tourists every year - so could luxurious camping out there be the next money maker? Then, this week on Big Debate's Little Debate one of our listeners has got in touch talk about how the Asian community can be encouraged to speak positively about children with disabilities. Do you have experience of negative attitudes and can it be isolating for parents of disabled children? Or maybe you think the community has progressed?
