Stop executions of child offenders.
The death penalty is irreversible, inhumane and involves an infringement of the right to life (in layman's terms, errr killing someone).
It is never justifiable, least of all perhaps for young people; in fact, the use of the death penalty against juveniles is clearly prohibited by International Law.
This group is for those who want to discuss, debate or even campaign around this issue.

I agree totally with the comment made by activista1 but I dony know what the answer is as i suspect they will carry on doing this until they are ousted from power - anyone like to help move them on?
Of all the Amnesty International campaign areas, the situation in Iran with the execution of child offenders is the one that most causes me to feel sick. Urgent actions concerning Iran are so numerous that I almost want to write "Hi, me again...still the same situation". I hope that I won't have to write letters concerning the execution of children in the future.
it's really worrying the all situation in Iran. There is still an action on Amnesty website to stop the executions of child offenders in Iran. Send an email to the Iranian authorities at http://www.amnesty.org.uk/actions_details.asp?A...
