South Africa: Constitutional Assembly Resources

Sir Duiiah Omar

I would like you to implement the death sentence. People are committing far too many murders and escaping scott free. If you implement the death sentence

people will be scared to commit more murders because they know that their lives would also be taken in turn.

Take Saudi Arabia for example, implement the death sentence and an eye-for-an‑eye rule, that is why if you commit a murder your life will be taken away and if you steal your hands will be chopped off and that is why Saudi Arabia is a safe and peaceful place to live in.

I hope the new government will implement the death sentence and an-eye-for-eye rule with you involved to stop crime, robberies and theft. In this way South Africa will be peaceful and a happy place for all to live in.

Yours sincerely

Mr M. Ebrahim
