Even though Capital Punishment is still legal in Lebanon, the last time it was applied was back in 2004 when 3 murderers were hung. There are currently over 50 criminals sentenced to death in Lebanon and waiting for The President of the Republic Michel Sleiman to either pardon them or sign the execution orders.
Personally speaking, I am totally against capital punishment and I hope the President takes the initiative to abolish it once and for all. The best way to punish these is by sentencing them to countless years of hard labor.
