Death Sentence: ప్రపంచ వ్యాప్తంగా పెరిగిన మరణశిక్షలు.. ఆ దేశాల్లోనే ఎక్కువ

On the one hand, even during the height of the Kovid epidemic, the number of executions worldwide has not diminished. According to Amnesty International, the death penalty will increase by almost 20 percent in 2021 compared to 2020. In 2021, 18 countries imposed 579 death sentences. From 2020, 246 to 314 people will be executed.

The number of executions has increased over the past four years, especially in Iran. Saudi Arabia has also doubled the number of executions since 2020. About 90 people have been sentenced to death in Myanmar under martial law, according to Amnesty International. Revealed that the death penalty in 2021 has increased alarmingly. Amnesty says judges in 56 countries have imposed at least 2,052 executions. Bangladesh, India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt and Pakistan have all seen an increase in the death penalty.

However, the number of executions in 2010 was the second lowest since 2010. The report makes no mention of executions in China, North Korea or Vietnam. It seems not to be mentioned due to privacy in those countries. Amnesty International says conditions in Myanmar are particularly alarming. Appeals are not allowed as military tribunals have the power to hear civil cases there. The report said that Sierra Leone had recently abolished the death penalty, while Malaysia was bringing in reforms on the death penalty, and Kazakhstan had also abolished the death penalty. The state of Virginia in the United States was the first state to abolish the death penalty completely.
