The Need For Indefinite Extension of Moratorium on Executions

In April 2023, Malaysia passed the bill for the mandatory death penalty to be repealed, marking a significant step forward for human rights advocates. But that is only the first step towards the complete abolishment of the death penalty in Malaysia, which can still be handed down for several crimes. We speak to Katrina Jorene Maliamauv of Amnesty International Malaysia on the need to push for a complete abolition of the death penalty.
