The Algerian parliament discussed a legal amendment to expand the scope of the death penalty to include crimes such as arson in fields and forests, as well as kidnapping children. This comes in response to a wave of devastating wildfires that resulted in the death of more than 12 people in the northern part of the country. The proposed amendment suggests increasing the punishment from life imprisonment to the death penalty in certain cases and aims to strengthen legal deterrence against these crimes, especially given the rising incidents of fires linked to organized crime and foreign cooperation. However, Amnesty International issued criticisms, calling for a halt to the implementation of the death penalty, while the law remains under discussion before final ratification.
