Jordan Clarifies Execution Resumption
The President of the Bar Association clarified that the resumption of executions in Jordan came after a decision by the Council of Ministers and the approval of the King. The aim is to serve as both a general and specific deterrent, particularly for serious crimes related to terrorism and drugs that have led to loss of life. He emphasized that enforcing these sentences strengthens the rule of law and ensures the protection of society, especially amid the increasing spread of drugs and their threats to the youth. He also noted that Jordan limits the use of capital punishment to the most severe crimes, while respecting international standards, despite not having signed the Protocol annexed to the international convention.
