US’s decision on execution of Troy Davis, an Afro-American who had been convicted of killing an off-duty policeman in 1989 i. e. almost two decades ago, has been recently interrupted by Germany.
Germany has called US to stop execution of Troy Davis despite seeing that his case stands weak with so many holes in the case against him. Mark MacPhail was a father-of-two. He was working as a night security guard in Savannah, Georgia, when suddenly a brawl occurred and Davis shot him in his heart and head at point-blank range.
“I have learned with consternation the rejection of Troy Davis’s appeal for clemency. Up to now there are still serious doubts about his guilt. An execution is irreversible — a judicial error can never be repaired”, Junior Minister for Human Rights Mr. Markus Loening said in a statement.
He further appealed the authorities of Georgia and the United States of America to stop today’s scheduled execution.
According to the reports, it was scheduled that Davis, 425, will be put to death by lethal injection at 2300 GMT on Wednesday, and the schedule went same way following Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles refusal to commute the sentence further.
Being alone all by themselves with their own individual thoughts can make most people uncomfortable.
