根据人权观察组织的说法,沙特阿拉伯本周以毒品罪处死了5名埃塞俄比亚人,指控他们持有哈希什大麻1。人权观察组织批评这些审判程序严重不当,审理时间极其短暂,仅持续数分钟,且被告人没有获得翻译和律师协助1。该组织还警告称,至少另有79名埃塞俄比亚人因类似罪名面临被处死的风险1。
沙特阿拉伯的死刑执行已成为国际人权关注的焦点。今年以来,该国至少已处死116人1,位居全球第三大执行死刑国家,仅次于中国和伊朗1。人权观察组织指出沙特的死刑使用违反国际人权法1。早前,埃塞俄比亚国家电视台的一位主教曾在5月呼吁沙特停止对埃塞俄比亚人的处死1。此外,据报道一名埃塞俄比亚人基达内·安格索姆在4月21日被处死,其母亲至今未能收到遗体1。
Saudi Arabia carried out executions of five Ethiopian nationals this week on drug-related charges, according to Human Rights Watch.1 The individuals were accused of possessing hashish.1
Human Rights Watch criticized the proceedings as grossly inadequate, stating that the trials lasted only minutes and were conducted without legal representation or translation services for the defendants.1 The organization further warned that at least 79 other Ethiopians currently face capital charges and risk similar execution.1 According to the rights group, a minimum of 116 people have been executed in Saudi Arabia so far this year.1
The executions underscore Saudi Arabia's prominent role in global capital punishment; the kingdom ranks as the world's third-largest executioner by volume, after China and Iran.1 Human Rights Watch contends that Saudi Arabia's use of capital punishment violates international human rights law.1 In May, the head of the Ethiopian national television station called on Saudi Arabia to halt executions of Ethiopian citizens.1 The case of Kidane Angesom, who was executed on April 21, exemplifies the human costs—his mother was unable to retrieve his remains.1
