death penalty

Prosecutors have not determined whether they will seek the death penalty in the case.

Earlier on Friday, federal prosecutors officially filed to seek the death penalty in this case.

US federal prosecutors have filed a formal notice seeking the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, the man accused of shooting dead a healthcare boss in New York.

Lissu, the leader of the main opposition party, Chadema, is back in the limelight after being charged with treason - a crime for which the maximum sentence is the death penalty.

Even the death penalty isn't off the table - not just for murder or mutiny, but for damaging an oil or gas pipeline or a sentry caught sleeping on duty.
