esus was executed because of the cry of a mob stirred to hatred by the religious leaders who felt that he was a threat; and possibly the Devil as well who saw killing God's son as a way to strike out at God.
Jesus was tried repeatedly before different courts, none of whom could find fault with him. Eventually the roman leader had him crucified to avoid a riot.
Jesus died on the cross because God sent Him to earth for that purpose. By His death, all the people on earth are able to ask forgivness of their sins and be forgiven! :) Another way to answer this question (Im not sure which answer you're looking for) is to say that Jesus was crucified because the people of His time did not believe that He was the son of God and they didn't want Him taking people from their own beliefs and conforming them into Christians.
because he was a follower of Jesus

Jesus was put to death to die for our sins. If Jesus didn't go to the cross we as human beings would not be able to ask God for forgiveness for all our sins. But Jesus rose again. Hallaelujah Brother!
Jesus would not have been put to death except there were a death warrant issued by the Roman Governor, Pontius Pilate. There was. He was. And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required. (Luke 23:24)
Our Blessed Lord was put to death and died on Calvary outside Jerusalem.

Two criminals were crucified with Jesus, one on his left and one on his right.

Christianity is based on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus was put to death on a cross so Christian churches use a cross as their symbol.
The Emperor of Rome at the time of Jesus' death was Tiberius Claudius Nero Caesar, but he did not kill Jesus. The only way Rome had a part in Jesus' death is that the land of Judah was under Roman control and the Jews could not put a person to death but had to appeal to Rome to crucify a person. The Jewish leaders wanted Jesus dead and so they appeal to Pontius Pilate, who was the Procurator (like a governor) to put Jesus to death. He obliged them.
Jesus knew He would soon be put to death and prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane.
