Backtrack On Total Abolition Of Death Penalty Unacceptable




The Malaysian Coalition Against the Death Penalty is deeply disappointed with the announcement made by de facto Deputy Law Minister Mohamed Hanipa Maidin today that the government has decided to abolish only the mandatory death penalty for 11 offences. This clearly falls short of what the cabinet had decided and announced on Oct 10, 2018, which was the total abolition of the death penalty across all crimes
We reiterate that the death penalty, whether mandatory or not, has no place in today’s world. It serves no proven deterrent purpose, does not contribute to a reduction in the crime rate and worst of all, it is absolute and irreversible
While we acknowledge that the return to discretionary sentencing for these 11 as yet unidentified offences is a small step forward, we are concerned that at the moment, there is still no developed jurisprudence, protection for the vulnerable and sentencing guideline for which the court should consider in exercising its discretion whether to hand down a death sentence. So long as the death penalty exists within our system, there is no guarantee that an innocent or vulnerable person will not be wrongly sentenced and executed
We urge the government to reconsider its decision, and reinstate its earlier position of total abolition of the death penalty. 
At the very least, the government should totally abolish the death penalty in Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, under which many poor and marginalised people have been sentenced to die
In the mean time, we demand that the government should:-continue its current moratorium on executions;review each and every past conviction for which sentences of death were handed down by the mandatory regime;commit to the total abolition of the death penalty within three years;commit to and implement reforms to our criminal justice system and uphold the highest standards of fair trial for each capital punishment case;make available to the public data and information about death sentences handed down, executions carried out, and uphold the principle of transparency in handling capital punishment cases;develop a support system for the family of murder victims, aimed towards reconciliation and healing; andimplement prison reform for death-row inmates in line with the internationally-accepted Mandela rules of detention.The Malaysian Coalition Against the Death Penalty is committed to working with the Malaysian government, and all other interested parties, to bring about the total abolition of the death penalty in Malaysia. - Mkini
