Report to the UN Secretary-General on the question of a moratorium on the use of the death penalty

• Input to UN SG on death penalty 2022

This submission to the UN Secretary General provides information on developments regarding the use of the death penalty since 1 July 2020, with a focus on drug offences. Because of a widespread lack of transparency on the phenomenon, all figures are minimum confirmed figures, likely to represent only a fraction of actual death sentences, executions, and death row populations.
