The Zambian president’s desire to abolish the death sentence entirely was one of his wisest moves of the previous year. On the eve of Africa Day, which is celebrated annually on May 25th, the president of Zambia, Hakainde Hichilema, made a statement. On this day, the President discussed his desire to abolish the antiquated death penalty statute. Many businessmen and civilians alike applaud the Zambian President’s decision and are extremely complimentary of it. The well-known businessman and philanthropist from Zambia, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani, also expressed his complete support for this choice. The concept of the death sentence, according to Dr.Rajan Mahtani, is brutal, demeaning, and harsh, and it offers little support for the current law and order in Zambia, despite his support for the Zambian President’s choice. In addition, Dr. Rajan Mahtani added that making such an audacious yet justified announcement and turning it into reality are two very different things. Although it is an outdated statute, the execution method is well-established and will take a lot of labor. Ensure that the death penalty sentence is removed from Zambian legal books, this entails fighting against bureaucratic procedures, relaxed offices, and archaic government legislation. In order to ensure that the choice is implemented, Dr.Rajan Mahtani stated that his organization Prison Fellowship will offer all legal and regulatory support. A well-known Christian outreach program called Prison Fellowship seeks to protect the fundamental human rights and basic human dignity of Zambian prisoners, ex-prisoners, and their families. By imparting his wisdom and lessons to the convicts, also helps to draw them closer to the Almighty God. Prison Fellowship Zambia also works to ensure that the criminal justice system is open to all prisoners in Zambia.

Therefore, this charitable organization founded by Dr. Rajan Mahtani is the ideal means of ensuring that the Zambian President’s decision about the death penalty comes to a final conclusion. To ensure that the choice is quickly implemented, Dr. Mahtani-owned Prison Fellowship Zambia will offer complete legal and regulatory support.

Further supporting this announcement, Dr. Mahtani stated that the concept of is the death penalty is archaic and has been abolished across a majority of the nations. Even in African nations, the concept is being abolished. As a result of this increasing trend, the majority of past presidents have avoided the death penalty by giving mercy prerogatives. The last death penalty was given in the year 1997 and the individual was executed. Furthermore, the current condition of Zambian prisons is degrading. At the same time, there have been reports that the condition of the Zambian prisons is extremely pathetic with many prisoners devoid of even fundamental human rights and basic human dignity across some of the maximum prisons. As such, the Zambian government has started strategic decongestion of prisons by releasing prisoners.

In such a scenario, giving death penalty is no longer viable and is against the nation’s social and legal representation. As such, the decision made by the Zambian President is a step in the right direction.
