African Commission marks World Day Against the Death Penalty
Original: Statement of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the occasion of World Day Against the Death Penalty
The African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights has issued a statement to mark the World Day Against the Death Penalty. The statement reiterates the Commission's position on capital punishment in Africa, where a number of countries retain the death penalty in law or practice, and calls for progress toward abolition and respect for the right to life across the continent.
Why now: The statement was published to coincide with the World Day Against the Death Penalty, an annual observance drawing attention to capital punishment.
