Capital punishment in Kyrgyzstan
Capital punishment in Kyrgyzstan has been abolished.[1]
On December 5, 1998, President Askar Akayev established a two-year moratorium on executions, which was subsequently renewed annually.[2]
On June 27, 2007 President Kurmanbek Bakiyev signed legislation amending Kyrgyzstan's Criminal Code and abolishing the death penalty.[2]
The Kyrgyzstan constitution was amended to state that:[2] "No one in the Kyrgyz Republic can be deprived of life."
