UN EXPERT URGES HALT TO POTENTIAL EXECUTION OF NIGERIAN AFTER DEATH
PENALTY MORATORIUM BROKEN
New York, Jun 26 2013 1:00PM
Warning that a prisoner in Nigeria is in imminent danger, an
independent United Nations expert is today urging a stop to his
possible execution just days after the country broke its seven year
moratorium on the death penalty and apparently executed four
prisoners.

"These executions undermine previous trends towards abolishing, in law
and practice, the death penalty in the country," UN Special Rapporteur
on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, Christof Heyns,
said in a statement.

"I am concerned that capital punishment appears to have been imposed
without due process safeguards in violation of the International
Covenant on Civil and Political Rights to which Nigeria acceded to on
29 July 1993," the Special Rapporteur underscored.

He added that without full respect for due process guarantees, capital
punishment constitutes a summary or arbitrary execution.

The independent UN expert also noted that the Government of Nigeria
had in 2009 reaffirmed its commitment to a de facto moratorium on the
death penalty when the situation of human rights in the country was
studied under the UN Universal Periodic Review.

The Geneva-based Council's Periodic Review subjects each country's
human rights record to a State-led peer examination on the basis of
information submitted by the country concerned, UN entities, civil
society and other stakeholders.

"I call on the Government of Nigeria to refrain from executing further
individuals and to return to the moratorium on the use of death
penalty in the country," Mr. Heyns said.

Independent experts, or special rapporteurs, are appointed by the
Geneva-based UN Human Rights Council to examine and report back, in an
unpaid capacity, on specific human rights themes.
