In Japan, sentenced to death are not known as the date of death

Some of them spend years waiting to complete izolyatsii



Death penalty - one of the most controversial issues of our time. In most countries, the death penalty is immoral, but some states still practice it - among them giants such as the US and China.

Japan - one of the few countries in the world, which also still practice the death penalty. Japanese bombers did not say when they will die: death row prisoners sit in isolation and silence, until one of them does not come and does not lead to the gallows. The word "gallows" should be taken literally - in Japan is still hanging.

Obviously, such a situation gives the inmates a huge concern. Some of them carried out in isolation for decades, and the daily stress leads to the fact that many of them suffer from severe mental illness. No less painful it is for the families of suicide bombers - they learn about the execution only when it has already been realized.

Prisoners strictly forbidden to speak to anyone else. Out of the cameras they are allowed two to three times a week, rest of the time they spend inside, alone. Also, they can not communicate with the press, so they do not accidentally addressed for support, and no one is allowed to witness executions.

Despite the outrage of the world, Japan is not going to change its policy in this regard. More than 80% of Japan's population supports the death penalty, and the number of secret executions in the past year has only increased.
