GAZA: MAN SENTENCED TO DEATH BY DEIR AL-BALAH COURT FOR MURDER

November 11, 2020:

The Deir al-Balah Court of First Instance on 5 November 2020 sentenced to death by hanging (A/A) for intentional murder, the Human Rights and Democracy Media Center "SHAMS” reported.
This ruling raises the number of death sentences issued by the Gaza Strip courts to (13) since the beginning of the year. These rulings reflect the further insistence of the Gaza Strip courts to continue this trend that violates human rights and the international obligations of the State of Palestine under the conventions and charters that it joined, foremost among which is the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the Second Optional Protocol thereto, which aims to abolish the death penalty. In addition to violating formal procedures under Palestinian legislation, specifically Article (109) of the Palestinian Basic Law and violating the official trend to end the death penalty in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, which devote Political and legislative division.
"SHAMS" Center calls on the UN Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, brief or arbitrary executions, the International Coalition Against the Death Penalty, and the civil and international institutions working in this field, for more pressure and advocacy towards stopping this punishment and opposing it in the Gaza Strip and standing next to “SHAMS” Center in his continuous struggle to abolish the punishment from Palestinian legislation and bring about a process of societal change on this level.
