As a member of Amnesty International I have to protest
in the most definite way against the executions that
have taken place in the British protectorate Bermuda
Friday 2nd December. The fact that your legal system permits this barbarian form of punishment puts shame
on England.
The death penalty is an inefficient as well as morally
indefensible way of solving social conflicts, I agroe completely with Arthur Latham's condemnation of this
so called legal practice.
I hope that the British government in face of Amnesty's
international conference in Stockholm will do its
utmost to change this outdated law.
Yours most respectfully
Pranje Okon
