Bonsoir j'ai des questions à partir d'un texte à faire mais je n'arrive pas à les faires pouvez-vous m'aidez svp ?
Amnesty International has condemned the decision by authorities in the state of Georgia to execute death row prisoner Troy Davis. Troy Davis, 42, who had been on death row since 1991, was executed Wednesday, despite serious doubts surrounding his conviction. On the same day, Iran publicly hanged a 17-years-old boy convicted of killing a popular athlete despite international prohibitions against executing juveniles. “This is a black for human rights worldwide. By executing these individuals, these countries are moving away from the global trend to abolish the death penalty”, said Guadalupe Marengo, Amnesty International’s Deputy Director for the Americas. Amnesty International activists have campaigned extensively against the death penalty. Troy Davis was sentenced to death in 1991 for the murder of police officer Mark Allen McPhail in Savannah, Georgia. The case against him primarily rested on witness testimony. Since his 1991 trial, seven of nine key witnesses recanted or changed their testimony, some alleging police coercion. Iranian teenager Alireza Molla-Soltani was hanged Wednesday morning in front of a large crowd in the city of Karaj.
Was the Iranian teenager executed in the same way as Troy Davis?
Was there absolute certainty that Troy Davis was guilty?
Are there more or less countries with the death penalty than before?
