If your parents or someone you love is having death penalty because they get set up by people in drugs & u believe they are innocent. Do you think they deserve a second chance? Or they deserve to death.
ars Well, I disagree. Killing an innocent is indeed inhumane. Criminals are inhumane. Killing the guilty is not. By killing the murderer, everything becomes balanced. You pay for taking a life, by giving yours. He killed unrighteously, by doing that, he gave away the right to his life. Unless he truly repents, he must pay for what he committed.
Nope cos the person who took the life. They also have family who are innocent, as innocent as the victim. They might have kids who are gonna lose a parent. Those kids are innocent, sure there parent or son or daughter might end up in prison for yrs & yrs. Mabye even life, that can't be changed. But they don't deserve 2 have their loved ones killed. Add 2 that, 1 in 25 on death row are thought 2 b innocent. A life sentence can be over turned, an execution can't. 1 former executioner in Virginia stated that in all the yrs he did the job, he saw more cases, a mix off sentences over turned, & the death row inmate released after proven innocent, than he did executions. That alone should say all that needs said ffs. God knows how many executed going on his figures were innocent. 2 wrongs will also nvr make a right. Killing 2 show killing is wrong, is wrong.
@@racchh_xx U pretty much have a point if the covicted turns out to be innocent but if he's guilty he's just getting what he deserves. The ultimate judgment murderers deserve is DEATH. By taking a life they forfeited their chance for mercy
Death penalty must remain brother. They don't deserve to live if they killed unless it was a justified for self defence or it was accidental. I do believe in some cases they should be punished but not killed but this could be justified depending on the case.
The killer was not in a right mental state since his divorce. He has been having episodes of rampages. Unfortunately, it was too late. U can read about it.
The father’s word was so powerful and it is rightfully placed in the early part of the documentary: “if there is no death penalty, when the murderer is free from prison, we can kill him too” and that shows how much of a problem it can cause to the society. Death penalty should not be abolished for murderers. Those who were never affected by murderers will never understand the feelings of the victims and that is why some people are willing to abolish death sentence
It is not about punishment but a tool to prevent future serious crimes. If you know that killing is punishable by death, maybe you will think twice before you commit the crime?
true..in islam, it is a deterrent. if punishment is Only 40-50 years, whats thr point. if Punishment is dead and after execution, two families must reconcile.
That is absolutely false and there is 5000 years of evidence that it is not s deterrent. Even comparing between similar states in the US with different laws, states with the death penalty have HIGHER murder rates.
@@ladygkoinami228 Not true. Canada and Australia are both countries that "normal" people can buy guns, there are simply more restrictions, and the results are the same. Canada has no death penalty, and lower murder rates, so...

Killing is wrong, regardless of who does it. And no, we shouldn't put ourselves into the shoes of the victim's relatives before deciding the fate of the accused. That's why we have (in some countries at least) impartial judges and juries, so that the emotion is removed from the trial.
My Uncle got brutally killed before he died in hospital after the killing he told not to pursue the criminals as they are kids under wrong influence.. now they don't do it anymore they changed and actually are lifelong ashamed for what they did... One death doesn't justify Killing, it's state sponsored hitman service for Sick people who think it will change anything. If you're willing to kill a criminal who did something bad, you're as bad as him just really deep in you!!
A life for a life is not the right way, it appears to make sense at first, but it is not the best way. An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. The goal of prison is not revenge, it is reformation.
琴 actually if the evidence is weak, they shouldn't be convicted in the first place. The standard is beyond reasonable doubt. Yet, it seems so subjective.
I love you for that, because i read on the statement of the 18 years old boy and they wrote themselves that no hair, tissues or DNA was found that belonged to the boy. Concluding that the sentence was backed only by the house that was rented where the crime took place was under his name and that the house had his hair samples!! regardless whether he knew about the crime or not i don't think it's worth a death sentence for him, and on my personal opinion based on the police statement, i don't think he knew what was going on he was set up and used from the start.. both ways he does not deserve the rope.

I still stick out my neck that the death penalty should stay, and stay permanently. Peperators should realise that committing a crime, and a heinous one against anyone in a community, is sinful and wrong punishable by death if it takes.
Death penalty shouldn't be abolished. If someone kill my family member, i ain't gonna let myself pay the tax to feed the murderer in jail, i want him to get what he deserves

The fisherman who lost his 2 kids said is true. He too will kill. So becareful for making the wrong decision to abolish the death penalty. Many victims will do the same to take revenge for their love ones. When murderers are out they better kill those lives they have destroyed to save themselves or they will be killed. The point is when will it ever ends? If no death penalty then make sure they will not be released and set a condition in prison that they wished the death penalty still exists. Slow painful death.
Death penalty should not be abolished. However, death penalty should be imposed but not on convict with circumstantial evidence, because there’s a big risk of punishing an innocent guy. Definitely a hot debate on this. I understand an eye for an aye. What if it is a wrongly accused convict? They have no money to hire better lawyer to defend them. That’s sad. Don’t you think? It is not solely about getting the crime rate decreases. But to make the legal system, a fair one. It takes many discussions to achieve a win-win situation. Let’s try to put our shoes in both sides. The victims ‘s family and the ‘wrongly’ accused cons’ family.
If that wife no longer loves the husband just divorce him why need to kill him and now there are 2 broken families with the poor boy without parents. Feel so sad for Steven Wong's parents too.
Drugs destroy lives so you are indirectly harming people. Also, there is so much drug trafficking in the region that imposing death is the only way to deter people from doing it. In Islam, drugs are also a major no no so that's why punishments are so harsh.
I cud sense that u and ur family are living happily with money earned from drug dealing activities. Drug traffickers are even worse than single homicide coz drug abuse kills millions of people and break up families... Stupid!!!
covid also kills millions of people and in a very short time, and permenantly destroys or alters the taste and smell of those who survive, see if you can touch the one person who brought it on.
You can see that man died when those babies died . I can’t even imagine the pain that family is going through . I don’t know if I could survive the death of my children . People who kill , torture or molest children do not deserve to live . Period ! God help us . Rest In Peace poor babies 😭😭😭😭😭
When it comes to murder cases, i tell you this, Malaysian investigator and police are the best at it. Death penalty is super neccessary to those who are guilty.
The people who are the most anti deaths sentence are people who've never been true victims of heinous crimes. And besides that, the death sentance removal is always slippery slope and soon other crimes will all be punished less harshly. Keep on it Malaysia. Criminals dont have more rights than the Normal Citizens.
You're wrong, it actually goes against common sense I know, but the death penalty is not the only way. The goal of prison is not revenge, it's reformation. No matter how heinous, they are still human, and humans have the capacity for growth. Remember, an eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind.
Criminals who are convicted on circumstantial evidence should not be considered for the death penalty. It should only be reserved for criminals who have been convicted based on overwhelming evidence and without doubt.
In Islam, death penalty can only be impose if the judges is ultimatly positively sure that all evidence and eye witness testimony has 0% doubt. So I dont know why people have this idea that Shariah law is on a killing spree. Also thats the very reason I oppose death penalty in Malaysia. mainly because existing system is corrupt. Chances of an innocent man can be put on death row is there. Fix the corruption issue first, then fix the education system. that is the real deterent for crime.
@Papyrus Okagbue did you know that in sharia law family of victim has a power to cancel the death penalty once the convicted is sentenced to death and of course after all evidence provide is beyond reasonable doubt ?compare to civil law, if family of victim forgive the criminal even during execution day then the convicted no need to be executed . Even gov or judge cannot so anything. All depend on family of victim. Thus how can u say islam always love death penalty?please gain knowledge more about sharia law instead bluntly give a stupid statement like this which can give other a wrong idea
Capital punishment of Death sentence on convicted murderer is quite different from convicted drug offender. One i can see the rationale behind it while the other i can not.
Please follow up with Mary Jane Veloso who is in Indonesia on death row. She was tricked with an offer of employment and the luggage her recruiter gave her was sewn with drugs. She is still on death row even though her recruiter came forward and said she was tricked and is innocent. Mary Jane has 2 children in the Philippines. Indonesia will not let her go...;they still are looking for a reason to murder her. PLEASE look into this for her PLEASE
the problem is not the death penalty for cruel crimes, which may be fine in some specific situations, the problem is that many of the people that are in the death row could actually be innocent, and being charged only because of corruption and police not doing their jobs well enough... also in the end only the poor will get executed while the millionaires and corrupt officials will always have the law on their side
It's a punishment. The criminal killers can kill and spend a few years in prison eating and sleeping on the citizens' money! After that they're walking the streets greeting their victims' family members!!! Islam forbid taking any life unless it's a punishment for a crime. And that guy who compared capital punishment to slavery is just an idiot!
Should NOT take death off the table completely however allow the judge's discretion for the few murder cases that may be an accident. For instance, car accidents are not always intentional. Taking it completely away is not right. Many more will commit murders if death penalty is no longer feared.
Human rights are only applicable for people who behave like a good human beings. A human being does not kill another human being. So when a person kills he has not only harm the victim. He has also harmed the victims family. The victims family will endure years of hardship. Who cares about the victims family? Why should we care so much more about the criminals than the victims?
Still not many country legalized cannabis. Many country is south east asia declared war on drug. Even the smallest quantities can get you heavy sentence.
It's a major no no in Islam and if you go to their countries, you follow their laws. Besides, if you knew it's a death penalty crime, then just don't do it. "It's legal in other countries" is also not a good justification of doing it in their country.
Death sentence for weed, no... I don't support weed, but innocent people get implicated with weed, like rivals, police who will plant the weed on their enemy
Death penalty should be consider on personal case. It's ok to give death penalty to murderer. But i don't think death should be for trafficking cannabis.
First like anything its a matter of context- circumstantial evidence shouldn't be enough for death penalty even for cases involving terrorism and death of minors. No justice system is perfect but if there is enough evidence, and convicted with a jury it can be warranted. The main argument against CP is the gov't shouldn't murder people but the gov't is only allowing the possibility, it shouldn't as in Malaysia be a mandatory sentence but should be the decision left to the jury/judge. This way its not the state who is murdering the person but those of your fellow citizens who are not the victim. However, you have to have a system that works to eliminate racism/xenophobia but that can impact people's perception. That all being said, human rights should apply to everyone, including victims and their families. Families should be able to make the case for the death penalty and a jury of ones peers should make the decision. The state should only act in accordance with the 'will of the people' not as a deterrent In order for this system to work properly however, you need your citizens to be educated enough to understand legal arguments and evidence, which even in industrialized countries that is a challenge.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a life for a life. Why have these criminals been on death row for so long at tax payers expense? There should be a time limit by when an execution MUST be carried out. Maintain the Death Penalty. This will provide “closure” for the those who have lost their loved ones to these criminals. I doubt if our neighbour to the South has this problem on their hands.
Honestly, in this generation death sentence should be abolished. But instead replace with life sentence until the guilty person is dead. So ppl will know they have pay what they own.
I always wonder, how can people thinking about inmate human rights if those people crossing other's human rights .... 🤔 the most funny thing is the reason is afraid of wrongfully death. that reason is very wrong, if that the case means the law enforcement is need to change system not the law. it is as if the government doesn't want to acknowledge their enforcer mistake rather said the law itself that was wrong 😟
I agreed with death penalty, they can pleased the victim's families with the dead of the murderers or rapists. The only thing I disagree is about the dead penalty for drug addicts/dealers. They need rehab tbh But the real problem are to find whether or not the prepetrator are truly guilty
If you do the crime then you must face the consequences of that decision even if it means death, why cry about the punishment and not why the person did the wrong in the first place.
A country can be judged by the behaviors of its police force. When considering death penalty, please think of the victims' families. They're better judges of justice than government appointed judges.
LMAO One of the dumbest statements I've heard all month. You think the family directly affected by a crime is in the best position to make a non bias, non emotional decision as to the best punishment to be issued to the alleged criminal? C'mon guy 😂
I don’t support the death penalty but if a country has it then it has to be mandatory because the responsibility for putting a person to death lies solely with the Judge and that would be unfair. Also in a multi cultural country like Malaysia the Judge could be accused of racism or hatred towards a different religious group,
How do we bring justice to the victim and his/her family and justice to the offender and his/her family? These are the people who are affected and suffering from the crime. This is what matters. Not just whether we should abolish or not abolish the death penalty.
the evidence must be tried and tried again. circumstantial evidence is simply not enough to justify someone's execution. it needs to be substantial, fully realized, fully analyzed, fully linked, then and only then will the death penalty be finalized. hard evidence, innocent people have died due to "circumstantial" evidence. i do not support the abolition, i support the idea of the people doing they're jobs thoroughly.
I don't understand 3rd world countries who are oppressed by the ONU to abolished the death penalty while in the USA we still have it. Do what is right for your country. No one know what is better for yourself better than yourself
Why should we ban death penalty just to protect the murderers. Do they think about the inoncent lives they have taken!

Let’s try to put our shoes in both sides. The victims ‘s family and the ‘wrongly’ accused cons’ family.
If that wife no longer loves the husband just divorce him why need to kill him and now there are 2 broken families with the poor boy without parents. Feel so sad for Steven Wong's parents too.
I don't agree with capital punishment for drug dealers, for the murderers on the other hand, carry on
Drugs destroy lives so you are indirectly harming people. Also, there is so much drug trafficking in the region that imposing death is the only way to deter people from doing it. In Islam, drugs are also a major no no so that's why punishments are so harsh.
U say like this maybe bcoz u are one of the drug dealers??
I cud sense that u and ur family are living happily with money earned from drug dealing activities.
Drug traffickers are even worse than single homicide coz drug abuse kills millions of people and break up families...
Stupid!!!
covid also kills millions of people and in a very short time, and permenantly destroys or alters the taste and smell of those who survive, see if you can touch the one person who brought it on.
I live in Sibu, Malaysia and I've seen the two elderly couple at the nightmarket and market. Omg...
can you give them a hug and tell them thats from all the people around the world thinking of them and sending them love?
Death penalty is to deter people from committing serious crimes.
And has it helped?
@@starlah8299 yes
@@starlah8299 it does actually
Since when carrying cannabis is a serious crime
I think death penalty is still necessary if the prisoners is proven 💯 guilty with full evidence and only with murdered cases.
You can see that man died when those babies died . I can’t even imagine the pain that family is going through . I don’t know if I could survive the death of my children . People who kill , torture or molest children do not deserve to live . Period ! God help us . Rest In Peace poor babies 😭😭😭😭😭
As a Malaysian, in my opinion, marijuana trafficking should not warrant a death sentence. Though I agree with enforcing death penalty for murderers.
When it comes to murder cases, i tell you this, Malaysian investigator and police are the best at it. Death penalty is super neccessary to those who are guilty.
The people who are the most anti deaths sentence are people who've never been true victims of heinous crimes. And besides that, the death sentance removal is always slippery slope and soon other crimes will all be punished less harshly.
Keep on it Malaysia. Criminals dont have more rights than the Normal Citizens.
Actually there are a lot people who's families have been killed who fight for the killers' lives.
You're wrong, it actually goes against common sense I know, but the death penalty is not the only way. The goal of prison is not revenge, it's reformation. No matter how heinous, they are still human, and humans have the capacity for growth. Remember, an eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind.
Criminals who are convicted on circumstantial evidence should not be considered for the death penalty. It should only be reserved for criminals who have been convicted based on overwhelming evidence and without doubt.
In Islam, death penalty can only be impose if the judges is ultimatly positively sure that all evidence and eye witness testimony has 0% doubt. So I dont know why people have this idea that Shariah law is on a killing spree. Also thats the very reason I oppose death penalty in Malaysia. mainly because existing system is corrupt. Chances of an innocent man can be put on death row is there. Fix the corruption issue first, then fix the education system. that is the real deterent for crime.
@Papyrus Okagbue did you know that in sharia law family of victim has a power to cancel the death penalty once the convicted is sentenced to death and of course after all evidence provide is beyond reasonable doubt ?compare to civil law, if family of victim forgive the criminal even during execution day then the convicted no need to be executed . Even gov or judge cannot so anything. All depend on family of victim. Thus how can u say islam always love death penalty?please gain knowledge more about sharia law instead bluntly give a stupid statement like this which can give other a wrong idea
Leaving Islam is punishable by death also 13 countries.
So he's basically saying killers also have human rights?
Before death penalty is meted out, they need to be sure they got the right person. It can be subjected to abuse in a corrupted regime.
Agreed.
That's my only problem with the death penalty.
@@professorrosenstock5026 Yeah. Or even racism and discrimination. It works only if the regime can be trusted.
I love my Malaysian brothers. Love from the Philippines
A really nice documentary
Should not have death penalty anywhere based on circumstantial evidence.
*Why didn't the 3rd person who helped with the murder only get 16 year sentence, instead of death*
Everybody gangsta till victims' family tells you their side
Capital punishment of Death sentence on convicted murderer is quite different from convicted drug offender. One i can see the rationale behind it while the other i can not.
To have the death penalty dose not stop murder
thats not the main point of death penalty
May God ease the pain and relief their sufferings to all the individuals involve in the death penalty case.
Please follow up with Mary Jane Veloso who is in Indonesia on death row. She was tricked with an offer of employment and the luggage her recruiter gave her was sewn with drugs. She is still on death row even though her recruiter came forward and said she was tricked and is innocent. Mary Jane has 2 children in the Philippines. Indonesia will not let her go...;they still are looking for a reason to murder her. PLEASE look into this for her PLEASE
the problem is not the death penalty for cruel crimes, which may be fine in some specific situations, the problem is that many of the people that are in the death row could actually be innocent, and being charged only because of corruption and police not doing their jobs well enough... also in the end only the poor will get executed while the millionaires and corrupt officials will always have the law on their side
That, thats rhe real problem.
Corruption and bribe are the biggest problem and enemy..i dare to say this wouldnt happen it there's no corruption and bribe
Get rid of it for drug offences but murder/rape should be death sentence
There’s actually a very easy way to not go to death row. That’s to not commit a crime. I know it’s hard but you should try it, I think it works
Innocent people dit om death roe all over the world..thus being innocent, is not enough.
We condemn killings or murder but we love capital punishment . How is that possible ? You're no different to murderers then.
"Seven years later the prosecution appealed."
That should be illegal.
Losing family member due to homicide is total nightmare..yes..murderer should be given death penalty...
See the way this old mothers are facing pain
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth !! DEALTH PENALTY SHOULD NOT BE BAN!!! The murderer deserves the dealth penalty.
do not cry, you failed to educate your children, and your children proceed to hurt someone else's children. No Mercy, keep the death penalty.
Parents can't control everything their child does. There is only so much they can do.
This is the big issue in Malaysia
It's a punishment. The criminal killers can kill and spend a few years in prison eating and sleeping on the citizens' money! After that they're walking the streets greeting their victims' family members!!!
Islam forbid taking any life unless it's a punishment for a crime. And that guy who compared capital punishment to slavery is just an idiot!
Should we kill drug dealers or poor people who steal just to eat?
@@FidoeFTW Drug dealers yes, poor people who steal should have punishments but not death.
A criminal escaping is better than 10 innocents dying
in Rwanda, after the genocide, if we don't remove the capital punishment another genocide was going to happen
this is a completely different circumstance lah.
Human rights is not for factual murders....
Should NOT take death off the table completely however allow the judge's discretion for the few murder cases that may be an accident. For instance, car accidents are not always intentional. Taking it completely away is not right. Many more will commit murders if death penalty is no longer feared.
For those human rights advocates, isn't it also the murdered victims' basic human rights to seek "equal justice" for the death of their loved ones?
Human rights are only applicable for people who behave like a good human beings. A human being does not kill another human being. So when a person kills he has not only harm the victim. He has also harmed the victims family. The victims family will endure years of hardship. Who cares about the victims family? Why should we care so much more about the criminals than the victims?
Death penalty for cultivating or selling cannabis is too cruel consider the fact that its totally legal to produce and consume it in many countries
Still not many country legalized cannabis. Many country is south east asia declared war on drug. Even the smallest quantities can get you heavy sentence.
TuTOk
Yeah but that’s wrong.
Stupid and cruel law.
Cannabis is a harmless drug.
Better to kill people for selling alcohol.
@@umai21 That's why you just don't go to those countries 🙄
I agree, but ppl have the option of just avoiding countries with those laws 🤷
It's a major no no in Islam and if you go to their countries, you follow their laws. Besides, if you knew it's a death penalty crime, then just don't do it. "It's legal in other countries" is also not a good justification of doing it in their country.
death penalty for drug
crimes seems harsh
Death sentence for weed? What about cigarettes and alcohol?
tax. lol
Death sentence for weed, no... I don't support weed, but innocent people get implicated with weed, like rivals, police who will plant the weed on their enemy
Death penalty should be consider on personal case. It's ok to give death penalty to murderer. But i don't think death should be for trafficking cannabis.
First like anything its a matter of context- circumstantial evidence shouldn't be enough for death penalty even for cases involving terrorism and death of minors.
No justice system is perfect but if there is enough evidence, and convicted with a jury it can be warranted.
The main argument against CP is the gov't shouldn't murder people but the gov't is only allowing the possibility, it shouldn't as in Malaysia be a mandatory sentence but should be the decision left to the jury/judge.
This way its not the state who is murdering the person but those of your fellow citizens who are not the victim. However, you have to have a system that works to eliminate racism/xenophobia but that can impact people's perception.
That all being said, human rights should apply to everyone, including victims and their families. Families should be able to make the case for the death penalty and a jury of ones peers should make the decision. The state should only act in accordance with the 'will of the people' not as a deterrent
In order for this system to work properly however, you need your citizens to be educated enough to understand legal arguments and evidence, which even in industrialized countries that is a challenge.
Poor kids and parents
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a life for a life. Why have these criminals been on death row for so long at tax payers expense? There should be a time limit by when an execution MUST be carried out. Maintain the Death Penalty. This will provide “closure” for the those who have lost their loved ones to these criminals. I doubt if our neighbour to the South has this problem on their hands.
No one commits a crime thinking they will be caught.
I believe that Malaysia should follow the Singapore strict laws.
I agree .
True.
Honestly, in this generation death sentence should be abolished. But instead replace with life sentence until the guilty person is dead. So ppl will know they have pay what they own.
I always wonder, how can people thinking about inmate human rights if those people crossing other's human rights .... 🤔
the most funny thing is the reason is afraid of wrongfully death. that reason is very wrong, if that the case means the law enforcement is need to change system not the law. it is as if the government doesn't want to acknowledge their enforcer mistake rather said the law itself that was wrong 😟
The answer lies in the words " do not transgress the limits"
Should murderer & rapist be free, they should be hanged till death.
I agreed with death penalty, they can pleased the victim's families with the dead of the murderers or rapists. The only thing I disagree is about the dead penalty for drug addicts/dealers. They need rehab tbh
But the real problem are to find whether or not the prepetrator are truly guilty
People supporting death penalty dont realize that death is an easy escape for them ... remaining in jail is more of a punishment
Seriously feel no sorry for the criminals
Death penalty because of murder is the best example that life is the most valuable thing and only can be paid by life.
Two wrongs dont make a right.
If you do the crime then you must face the consequences of that decision even if it means death, why cry about the punishment and not why the person did the wrong in the first place.
A country can be judged by the behaviors of its police force. When considering death penalty, please think of the victims' families. They're better judges of justice than government appointed judges.
LMAO One of the dumbest statements I've heard all month. You think the family directly affected by a crime is in the best position to make a non bias, non emotional decision as to the best punishment to be issued to the alleged criminal? C'mon guy 😂
We should not protect the murderer. We should protect the innocence people and victims' family.
Qatar also has death penalty for the smuggling of narcotics
I don’t support the death penalty but if a country has it then it has to be mandatory because the responsibility for putting a person to death lies solely with the Judge and that would be unfair. Also in a multi cultural country like Malaysia the Judge could be accused of racism or hatred towards a different religious group,
*Eliminate death penalty for marijuana offenses!*
How do we bring justice to the victim and his/her family and justice to the offender and his/her family? These are the people who are affected and suffering from the crime. This is what matters. Not just whether we should abolish or not abolish the death penalty.
the evidence must be tried and tried again. circumstantial evidence is simply not enough to justify someone's execution. it needs to be substantial, fully realized, fully analyzed, fully linked, then and only then will the death penalty be finalized. hard evidence, innocent people have died due to "circumstantial" evidence. i do not support the abolition, i support the idea of the people doing they're jobs thoroughly.
There should absolutely be no death penalty for drug cases,just the thought is absurd!
I don't understand 3rd world countries who are oppressed by the ONU to abolished the death penalty while in the USA we still have it. Do what is right for your country. No one know what is better for yourself better than yourself
Not a 3rd world country.
oh my god i feel sooooo freaking sorry for the second case... how could the mother's family of the child gets the custody?
Main problem is education
Keep the community safe. "An eye for an eye"
On death row for selling cannabis?.. wow.. that’s a bit too much
Section 39B Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 where if someone found guilty traffickig any kind of drugs are sentenced to death mandatory in gallow.
smuggling
They should also hang rapist.
If there’s enough evidence then death penalty’s is the best for an eye for an eye.,,
SAD TO SEE IN MYCOUNTRY
