Abolition of the death penalty faces setbacks amid political disputes, harming human rights efforts
The article focused on the Lebanese Parliament's rejection of a bill aimed at abolishing the death penalty, as it was obstructed due to its linkage to the general amnesty law. This connection turned the bill into a contentious issue and caused it to lose the necessary support for passage. Despite the support from the Kataeb Party and a broad range of deputies, and given that no executions have been carried out in Lebanon since 2002, the confusion between the two laws led to its suspension. This represents a loss for human rights and damages Lebanon's international reputation. It is believed that enacting this law is important for strengthening judicial cooperation and elevating the legal system, aligning with the global trend towards human rights.
