As per a바카라 웹사이트statement issued by the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB), a바카라 웹사이트45-year-old Saridewi Djamani was hanged to death on Friday, in바카라 웹사이트Changi Prison. The Singaporean Woman was convicted of attempting to traffic an ounce of heroin- 31 grams precisely. Human Rights Groups, worldwide denounced the judicial exececution, identifying바카라 웹사이트it as a 'grim milestone' for the country. .바카라 웹사이트Chiara Sangiorgio, death penalty expert at Amnest International said that the latest execution “defied international safeguards on the use of the death penalty.”Although the CNB assured that convict was바카라 웹사이트“accorded full due process under the law and was represented by legal counsel throughout the process.”바카라 웹사이트
The death sentence of Saridewi came after an interval of around 20 years, since the last execution of hairdresser Yen바카라 웹사이트May Woen in 2004. Yen was also convicted of drug trafficking. Singapore's laws permit a death penalty for trafficking anything over 15 grams of heroin. The Lion City maintains some of the world's harshest바카라 웹사이트drug laws- under which anyone caught trafficking, importing or exporting particular quantities of certain illegal drugs like바카라 웹사이트methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine or cannabis and its related products, receives the mandatory death sentence. 바카라 웹사이트
Since the pandemic바카라 웹사이트induced furlough, Singapore has now executed 15 people- signalled as an accelerated pace by activists. The government remains adamant on capital punishment to curtail drug trafficking and ensure public safety.바카라 웹사이트“Capital punishment is used only for the most serious crimes, such as the trafficking of significant quantities of drugs which cause very serious harm, not just to individual drug abusers, but also to their families and the wider society,” the CNB stated.바카라 웹사이트
According to a report from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in June, the illegal drug trade in Asia had surged to “extreme levels.” The report underligned that바카라 웹사이트crime groups were establishing new trafficking routes to evade enforcement crackdowns. Activists argue that the death penalty is proven ineffective in curbing illegal drug바카라 웹사이트trade across the country. A joint statement by바카라 웹사이트Transformative Justice Collective and other human rights바카라 웹사이트groups emphasised on the need to disrupt drug cartels than to retain jarring drug laws- which in practice oust low level traffickers and couriers who are typically recruited from the margins with intersectional vulnerabilities.바카라 웹사이트
