CAPITAL PUNISHMENT ADD UP FIERCE, HORRIBLE AND TAINTING DISCIPLINE: A REFLECTION ON KENYA AND EAST AFRICA

L. Davies Helena , Department Of Law, University Of Nairobi School Of Law, Kenya

Abstract

In a continuous conversation over the radio in Kenya on the death penalty, the vast majority of visitors seemed, by all accounts, to be pleasant to the death penalty. The inspiration driving this paper is to make sense of that capital punishment is primitive, brutal and degrading contrary to the principles set out in the Show against Torture, the optional show to the Bound together Nations Agreement on Normal and Political Freedoms on the dissolution of the death penalty. The method of this paper is to summon the East African assessment and widespread plans to help the prospect that death penalty amounts to the taking of a human existence and is similar to the infringement of fundamental common freedom to life as valued in both the Kenya and the East African Constitution. East Africa saw to this call and canceled capital punishment, however Kenya recollects capital punishment for its constitution, but outlined this sort of discipline in a compulsory way.
