Rights advocate challenges death penalty in Belarus
Original: “Infallibility does not exist”: Rights advocate on death penalty in Belarus
A human rights advocate in Belarus has spoken out against the country's use of the death penalty, arguing that "infallibility does not exist" — meaning no judicial system is immune from wrongful convictions. Belarus remains the only country in Europe that still carries out executions, making any criticism of the practice from rights defenders a matter of ongoing international concern and debate.
Why now: Belarus's status as Europe's last execution state keeps capital punishment a persistent human rights controversy.
