A more thorough explanation: Commutation of sentence refers to the reduction or alteration of a criminal sentence by a competent authority, such as a governor or a president. This typically involves changing a sentence to a less severe punishment, such as reducing a prison term or changing a death sentence to life imprisonment.
Example: The governor granted the prisoner’s request for commutation of sentence, reducing his life sentence to 20 years in prison.
