行政院长苏贞昌25日赴立法院接受施政总质询,外界关注的死刑议题,苏贞昌答询时表示,死刑既然判决定谳就该执行。而国际人权联盟FIDH25日的闭幕式上也针对台湾持续死刑及邱和顺案发紧急动议,要求台湾政府遵守「公民政治权利国际公约」第六、七、十四条的规定,在废除死刑之前,推动「暂缓执行」。

国际人权联盟FIDH25日举行闭幕式,针对台湾持续死刑及邱和顺案发了一份紧急动议,闭幕式上由一百多个国家会员代表共同通过此议案。而21日总统蔡英文也参与开幕式,并聆听前死刑冤案徐自强在开幕式上的致词

临时动议上,FIDH提及邱和顺已被关押30年,而其司法审判瑕疵,违反了「公正审判」,也侵犯了邱和顺的人权,这点在「模拟亚洲人权法院」的「邱和顺吿中华民国政府」案,也做出了同样的判决,认为中华民国政府严重侵害邱和顺的人权,也违反了「公民与政治权利国际公约」第六、七、十四条的规定。

国际人权联盟也提到今年在监狱里三个死囚在监自杀及死亡的个案,却未有任何调查。及台湾对于精神障碍者执行死刑,也违反联合国决议。也提及执行死刑者的精神卫生状态,未被重视。

国际人权联盟呼吁台湾政府对于邱和顺案重新进行检视其中的人权侵害问题,提供邱和顺有效救济,也要求台湾政府检视「死刑行要点」,不能违反「身心障碍者权利公约」之规定。并认为台湾政府遵守「公民与政治权利国际公约」第六、七、十四条的规定,应在废除死刑之前,推动「暂缓执行」,也检视「赦免」程序有效性,以及死刑犯在监狱里面的身心状态,改善他们在监狱里面的处遇

临时动议英文全文如下:

Motion condemning  the use of the death penalty in Taiwan, particularly the case of Chiou Ho-shun Oct. 25, 2019, Taipei                                         Delegates of the FIDH 40th Congress,                                  Recognize that the Taiwanese government resumed execution of the death penalty in 2010 after a 4-year moratorium and the passage of the Act to Implement the ICCPR & ICESCR in 2009. Expressing deep concern that  the rights of Mr. Chiou Ho-shun, who has spent over 30 years in detention, have been seriously violated. His access to a fair trial was denied due to the loss of physical exhibits during trial, without any opportunity of cross-examination of the witness.  According to the recent Judgment of the Asian Human Rights Court Simulation (AHRCS) on the Case Chiou Ho-shun v. Taiwan  by the 7 Judges who were human rights experts across the region, it ruled the Taiwaese government violated Articles 7 and 14 of the ICCPR. Note with grave concern that the execution of the death row inmates living with psycho-social disability violated a series of UN resolutions and standards upheld in the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). The Guideline of Execution on the Death Penalty of Taiwan should be reviewed and revised to comply with the CRPD. Note that three death row inmates died in prison this year, including one through suicide. No investigations have been carried out nor reports on these deaths. Currently there are 39 inmates on death row, and no proper procedure is in place for them to seek clemency. Every death row inmate has been constantly under the pressure and risk of being executed at anytime. Note the fact that the execution is carried out by a single gunman. The psychological pressure and mental health of the executioner has not been taken seriously by the authorities. The secrecy surrounding the execution prevents the family members of the death row inmate from seeing him or her for the last time. Recall that, during the FIDH 40th Congress in Taiwan, an FIDH international delegation visited the Taipei Detention Center, where Mr. Chiou Ho-shu, has been on death row for the past eight years and is awaiting execution. Call upon the Taiwanese government to examine the human rights violations against Mr. Chiou Ho-shun, and to provide proper remedies for these violations.                                           Call upon the Taiwanese government to take necessary action to comply with Articles 6, 7, and 14 of the ICCPR, and the latest released General Comment no. 36. In the meantime, we strongly encourage the Taiwanese to impose a moratorium on the death penalty until its abolition. Call upon the Taiwanese government to review the Guideline of Execution on the Death Penalty and to revise the items which violate the  Convention on the Rights of persons with Disabilities (CRPD). Call upon the Taiwanese government to review the procedure of clemency, and to ensure the effectiveness of the procedure. Call upon the Taiwanese government to investigate the social and psychological conditions of the death row inmates, and to improve their treatment in detention.
