I think that that would be murder.
You don't have the right to carry out a death sentence. Only a judge (or a jury) would.
And essentially, using a gun to kill a criminal for petty theft, robbery, or even armed robbery, is murder. Plain and simple. The penalty for armed robbery isn't even the death penalty.
In my country, its quite simple. Armed robbery gets you life. Firing a shot during an armed robbery (whether you hit anyone or not) gets you a long drop off a short rope.
Yes. Guns are banned. Armed robbery cases? i think the last one was 5 years ago.
