Joint Local Statement on the death penalty case of Nagaenthran a/l K Dharmalingam in Singapore 7 November 20

The Delegation of the European Union issues the following statement together with the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States and the diplomatic missions of Norway and Switzerland in Singapor

The EU Delegation and the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States and of Norway and Switzerland call on the Singapore authorities to halt the execution of Nagaenthran a/l K Dharmalingam, and to commute his sentence to a non-capital sentence. The EU Delegation and the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States and of Norway and Switzerland oppose the use of capital punishment, which can never be justified, and advocate for Singapore to adopt a moratorium on all executions as a positive first step towards its abolition.

Today, more than two thirds of the countries of the world have become abolitionist in law or practice, which confirms a global trend in favour of the abolition of the death penalty. No compelling evidence exists to show that the death penalty serves as a more efficient deterrent to crime than imprisonment. Moreover, rehabilitation as an objective of modern criminal law is frustrated by the application of capital punishment. Furthermore, any errors - inevitable in any legal system - are irreversible.

The EU Delegation and the diplomatic missions of the EU Member States and of Norway and Switzerland will continue to actively work to further the universal trend towards the eradication of the death penalty.

The death penalty is a lot cheaper than imprisonment.

We can digitally tag these criminals and make them work as garbage collectors for Sembcorp for life. It is possible to make criminals pay for their own imprisonment. They can't escape the island when they have to return to an imprisonment dormitory after work and we can track them down with satellites.

 

[bobby]

Agree...EU shouild impose trade sanctions on SG.

Why go through all this trouble when it is far easier to just hang the bastards.

Hey jiuhu kia, we should let this guy go free so that he can live with you and your family. That would be a win win situation for everyone.

If only there was a law to execute oppies for being oppies. Ah Gong was too lenient with the oppies during the 1960s and 70s.

AhGong appealed to Queen Hari mao of Sinkieland for clemency in Nagaenthran’s case

By Anna Maria Romero
Malaysia — If convicted drug trafficker Nagaenthran K Dharmalingam escapes the gallows in Singapore, that could be the closest thing to a royal pardon anyone here could receive in this non-royal republic.

That’s because Malaysia’s Yang di-Pertuan Agong, or King himself has appealed to President Halimah Yacob to grant clemency to Nagaenthran, who is a Malaysian national.

Nagaenthran, 33, whose case has been in the international spotlight for some weeks now, had been scheduled to hang on Nov 10.

But then, he tested positive for Covid-19 on Nov 9 and the execution was delayed. Nagaenthran, 33, had been on death row for 11 years.

Malaysia’s Parliament or Dewan Rakyat, was told on Tuesday (Nov 23) that the country’s monarch had written to Madam Halimah appealing for clemency for the drug trafficker.

Malaysia’s deputy foreign minister, Kamarudin Jaffar told the Dewan Rakyat, “We tried all we could to help and I can reveal that apart from the foreign minister and the prime minister, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong had also written to the Singapore president for the sentence to be reduced for a certain case, or the individual to be freed.”​

Mr Kamarudin said this when answering questions about the Malaysian government’s plan to uphold human rights.

Nagaenthran is said to have an IQ of 69 and to suffer from intellectual disability.

He was arrested for drug trafficking when he was 21, and was sentenced to death for importing 42.72g of heroin into Singapore. At his trial, he claimed he had been coerced by a man who assaulted him and threatened to kill his girlfriend.

Malaysiakini reported last week that Nagaenthran’s lawyer in Singapore, M Ravi, was planning to sue Singapore’s Attorney-General Lucien Wong on behalf of Nagaenthran’s family.

He told Malaysiakini: “What I have is the instruction (from) the family to sue the AG (Wong) over their negligence and willful disregard. After putting them on notice (about) Nagaenthran’s mental health, they should have just stopped and said ‘Okay, I’ll get someone to review’. (There has been a) willful disregard for human life. We will be suing. Nagaenthran and the family will be claiming damages as well.”

Appeals for a stay of execution for Nagaenthran have come from many quarters, including Malaysian Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, rapporteurs from the United Nations and even celebrities such as British business magnate Richard Branson.

Malaysia’s state news agency Bernama reported on Nov 7 that the Malaysian PM wrote to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong requesting clemency for Nagaenthran.

Activists on both sides of the Causeway have pleaded for a stay of his execution based on extraordinary circumstances, and a petition on the change.org platform appealing for him to be spared has drawn more than 95,000 signatories. /TISG

Well... way back donkey years ago in 1986. News clip below.

Brian Chambers and Kevin Barlow executed in Malaysia​

Peter Hiett and Agencies
Mon 7 Jul 1986 15.46 BST

Two Australian heroin traffickers, Brian Chambers and Kevin Barlow, were hanged shortly before dawn today after a flurry of last-minute appeals to the Malaysian authorities for mercy or a stay of execution failed, prison officials said. The officials spoke to reporters through a peep-hole in the massive steel gates of Pudu gaol,
Kuala Lumpur.

Later an unmarked prison truck left the prison for the mortuary, witnesses in a crowd of some 200 reporters and onlookers said.
The two were the first Westerners to hang under Malaysia 's tough anti-drugs laws, which prescribe death for anyone convicted of having over 15 grammes of heroin.

Asked how he felt, Barlow's lawyer, Mr Karpal Singh, said: 'Pathetic, that it should have come to this stage. '

Chambers' mother said in a written statement: 'No one has the right to take someone else's life. It's inhumane. There is no more to be said, but he will be free forever.

Chambers and Barlow, who was born in Stoke and who also held British nationality, were arrested on the resort island of Penang in November 1983, with 180 grammes of heroin and given mandatory death sentences last July. An appeal failed last December.

The governor of Penang, the last source of mercy, rejected repeated clemency pleas. He has never pardoned drugs peddlers.

Chambers and Barlow were hanged despite appeals for clemency from the Australian and British Prime Ministers and from the human rights group Amnesty International.

Mr Karpal, who helped Barlow to draw up his will on death row, said he had told him how he had failed to see the Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Mahathir Mohamad, to plead for a stay of execution.

He said Barlow told him that Datuk Mahathir 'will have to take a lot of flak in the international world.' His last words to Mr Karpal were: 'You have tried your best. That's the end. '

Pleas for a stay of execution are still pending in Penang High Court. One case was adjourned in uproar last week until July 14 after the Attorney-General, Tan Sri Abu Talib Othman, had told the court that the men's death warrant had been processed despite an earlier pledge that it would be withheld pending litigation.

Amnesty International had called Penang to say that Malaysia was breaking United Nations resolutions banning executions while a mercy plea was pending.
