Today CPJP joins activists around the world to mark World Day Against the Death Penalty under the theme 'The death penalty protects no one'.

Read our joint statement with six allied organisations who are gravely concerned by developments in Singapore since early August 2024. The authorities carried out two executions in violation of international safeguards and limited the right to freedom of expression of a local NGO.

We are alarmed by the recent publication by the Chinese authorities of new judicial guidelines providing directives to prosecute and harshly punish, including by the death penalty, those advocating and acting for Taiwan’s independence.

A statement from Yang Hengjun’s family and friends.

CPJP partner Odhikar has just released their 2023 human rights report on Bangladesh.
