– FIDH is outraged at the execution of Troy Davis, declared dead on the 21st September 2011 at 11:08 pm (Georgia - USA - time).
– This execution is shameful. It condemns a man whose guilt has never been proven after more than twenty years of proceedings, and who never stopped claiming his innocence.
– Troy Davis’ execution confirms the inhumane character of the death penalty. He waited for more than twenty years in the death rows and was previously confronted to 3 last-minute delays of execution procedures. It jeopardises a entire system that is capable of executing possibly innocent people. The USA have to urgently engage in the path of total abolition of the death penalty.
– 22 September 2011 (in French): Troy Davis has been executed
– 20 September 2011: Troy Davis must not be executed
– 15 September 2011 (in French): Do not execute Troy Davis!
