Pakistan ends death penalty for prisoners with severe mental health problems

This week, supreme court in Pakistan revoked the law on the executing prisoners with serious mental problems. It also ordered prosecutors and trial judges to be trained to asses mental health issues at trial. I think that it is a good piece of news, mostly because it's unhuman for me to kill someone, even when they killed. In my opinion even though those people are in prison, they should be helped with their ilnesses. One of the points of prison is to think through the crime you commited and clearly regret it. If you have mental problems it's much harder to do - you probably weren't even yourself when you did it. I am not saying that those people should be excused for their crimes, but it's at least fair to understand mistakes. https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/feb/12/pakistan-ends-death-penalty-for-prisoners-with-severe-mental-health-problems
