UN criticizes planned live broadcast of Nidal Hasan's execution
Videos
The United States plans to broadcast the execution of former military psychiatrist Nidal Hasan live on December 3. The execution by shooting is to take place at the Fort Hood base in Texas, where Hasan shot dead 13 unarmed American soldiers and wounded another 32 people in 2009. BBC News ↗
The Pentagon announced that the execution will be carried out by a firing squad. It will be the first execution of a member of the US military since 1961. Hasan will also be the first military convict in the United States whose execution is broadcast to the public. teraz.sk ↗
A spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General, Stéphane Dujarric, stated that the planned live broadcast could violate the international prohibition of torture. According to the UN, the public broadcast of the execution would, by its nature, be comparable to a public carrying out of the sentence. irozhlas.cz ↗
A former American soldier who survived the Fort Hood shooting also disagrees with the plan. He supports the execution by shooting, but expressed concerns about its broadcast. US Vice President J. D. Vance stated that he does not know whether the broadcast will ultimately take place, and that he will not be watching the execution. BBC News ↗
Hasan was sentenced to death for the attack. The Pentagon's decision to broadcast the carrying out of the sentence may yet provoke further legal and international criticism. n-tv ↗
