Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani further stated that the consensus towards abolishing the loss of life penalty has grown over the years with the fashion infiltrating Zambia too. As an end result, beyond Presidents of Zambia have tactically avoided giving capital punishment over the years. The ultimate time loss of life penalty was given became in the yr 1997 and because of then, no capital punishment has been given. At the identical time, the Zambian government has commenced strategic decongestion of Zambian prisons after reports emerged of the degrading and pathetic condition of most prisons across Zambia. It has been pronounced that the prisons in those maximum prisons are often without essential human rights and fundamental human dignity. Zambian Government in collaboration with establishments like Parole Board Zambia (PBZ) and Correctional facilities have been engaging in strategic decongestion of prisons. In such circumstances, giving the demise penalty makes no feel and the step undertaken with the aid of Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema is in reality in the right direction.
