Exactly 25 years ago this month, South Africa abolished the #deathpenalty. Only 8 of 54 countries in the African Union had abolished in 1995; today there are 20. Will #Zimbabwe be next? 🇿🇼 #timetoenddeathpenalty #enoughisenough

Zimbabwe is ready to abolish the death penalty | Our findings from our public & opinion leaders’ studies demonstrate that public opinion does not pose a barrier, & opinion formers support an Act of Parliament as the best way forward to bring about abolition. #nomoredeathpenalty

The aftermath having received 24 strokes. Whether it is judicial flogging or execution, we must call it out for what it is - inhuman and degrading punishment that has no purpose other than to inflict severe pain and cruelty. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…

Whilst govts rightly enact laws to punish wrongdoing, they also have a duty to ensure that sentencing regimes are proportionate to offences committed. Read our commentary on flogging of Yuen Ye Ming in Singapore-imposed on top of a 20 yr sentence for supplying drugs to friends.

Our work consistently reveals that #deathrow populations are disproportionately represented by the economically disadvantaged, those with mental disorder and other vulnerable groups. #AccesstoJustice for the majority is a myth rather than a reality: bit.ly/36KCkK4

The webinar is ajourned! 👏Special thanks to our distinguished panelists Parvais Jabbar & Hon. Celtabet, & to our President, Margareta Cederfelt, for all your insightful contributions! We look forward to more fruitful discussions! Commemorate tomorrow: #WorldDayAgainsDeathPenalty

Heads of Mission of Australia, Canada, the Delegation of the European Union, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom issue this statement in #Zimbabwe on the abolition of the #DeathPenalty Human Rights at FCDO @DeathPenaltyProject

I oppose the death penalty for many reasons. One of the reasons is that people sentenced to death in my country often have poor legal representation because death row cases are neither lucrative nor prestigious. The latest Death Penalty Project highlights issue of representation.

90% of Zimbabwe’s opinion leaders support abolition. Read powerful report and President Mnangagwa’s foreword here: deathpenaltyproject.org/new-report-fin…

Wouldn’t it be fantastic to see Zimbabwe abolish the #deathpenalty in 2020. Impressed by work of local groups who've done so much work on this issue like Veritas Zimbabwe. UK opposes the death penalty in all circumstances.

Thank you to all our funders and partners, for making our work possible. Together, we will continue to provide #AccesstoJustice to those facing the #DeathPenalty. Our statement on 18th #WorldDayAgainstTheDeathPenalty: bit.ly/36KCkK4

Today is the #WorldDayAgainstDeathPenalty Because the death penalty is wrong in principle & because the reality is that flawed, under resourced legal systems still condemn innocent people - often poor or w mental ill health I’m proud to support the work of DeathPenaltyProject

1/2 In the first ever case of this kind, Malaysian man has death sentence overturned after further review by Court of Appeal in #Singapore. We assisted local attorney M.Ravi and his team- tenacious advocacy as always. Read our press release here: bit.ly/3mlIZPz

2/2 A justice system shows its strength when the court is prepared to concede, if the circumstances demand it, that its previous decision can no longer stand. Gobi would have been executed if the decision had been allowed to remain. #Singapore
