Different countries have different stance on the death penalty ie hanging around the world. According to the 2024 report of Amnesty International, 112 countries have completely abolished the death penalty for all crimes. In such a situation, let us know which are the countries that have completely stopped the death penalty and in which countries the death penalty is being punished indiscriminately.
In which countries the death penalty completely ends
Among the most recent examples, Zimbabwe abolished the death penalty for general offenses in 2024, while Zambia completely abolished it in 2023. Apart from this, Sierra Leon, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Kazakhstan, Equatorial Guinea, Papua New Guinea, and Ghana have also eliminated hanging in recent years for completely or for general crimes.
Many reasons account for this
The first and biggest reason is the honor of human rights United Nations and many international organizations believe that the death penalty violates the right to life. It is considered cruel, inhuman and derogatory punishment. Not only this, it has been seen in many countries that innocent people were hanged due to wrong punishment. One reason for not giving death penalty is that no study shows that the death penalty is effective in reducing the rate of crime.
The most sentence of death penalty in these countries
However, there are also countries where the death penalty is still sentenced to the most, including countries like China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and America. Thousands of hanging are especially hanged every year in China, but accurate figures are kept secret.
