‘urgent’ issue

LONDON (CP) + The executions of thousands of citizens by the world’s governments — many of them carried out beyond the bounds of law — is an “urgent and imperative issue: for the international community,” Amnesty Interna: tional said in its annual: report released today.

The London-based human. rights organization said “world public opinion will_no longer tolerate government killing of pri: whether by i ination or torture.”

Canada is briefly mentioned in the report because of a 1982 prison riot in Quebec.

The organization, which strives to -bring attention to prisoners of conscience and victims of torture, opposes the death penalty even when it is imposed in a constitutional framework. ¢

In the preface of the 329-page report which details

human rights violations in 123 countries, Amnesty says it found more than 1,500 court-ordered executions in 1984. However, those represent only a fraction of government killings.

Totals for legal executions were unavailable from many countries, including China, Iran and Iraq, where the death penalty is common, Amnesty said.

Unlawful government killings add to the toll. “Secrecy concealed many deaths and governments-denied responsibil- ity for killings. carried out on their orders or with their complicity," Amnesty said.

CITES NEGLECT

In some countries, such as Cameroon, Sierra Leone and Zaire, “prisoners died as a result of neglect or malnutrition,” the report said. It also claimed two human rights activists died in custody in the Soviet Union.
