Message | Mr. Speaker, We don't think governments give a good moral lead to civil society by executing criminals. Also, we question the wisdom of having different policies for different parts of the country. Why should an offender be sent to prison in one part of the country, but be executed in another? |

Message | Mr. Speaker, It's a delicate question so we thought to give local governments the power of choose what they feel like, maybe they could use referendum for asking people what they think about this law. |
