Reporting on Singapore’s Death Penalty
There is a dearth of in-depth, critical reporting on the use of the death penalty from the local mainstream media. Most of the coverage of death row prisoners’ stories and the effects of capital punishment comes from international media outlets. This page links to media coverage, as well as significant statements from local and international organisations.
