Abstract:Capital punishment still exists in Zambia and the death penalty (CAP.87.25(1)) may be passed for such crimes as treason, murder, and aggravated robbery. Minors and pregnant women are exempt. At the time of writing there were 220 people on death row but no one had been executed since 1997. Having set the scene, the author sets out the arguments for and against capital punishment. Notes.
