Moratorium NewsKiller Wiliam Earl Lynd is executedA convicted killer has become the first death row inmate to be executed in America since the Supreme Court upheld the use of lethal injection, ending a seven-month moratorium.Read Full Article World Briefing | Africa: South Africa: Elephant Kills Are Legal AgainThe government said it would start killing elephants beginning May 1 to reduce their growing numbers, ending a 13-year moratorium. Environment Minister Marthinus van Schalkwyk said it was ?a last option? to reduce environmental degradation and rising conflicts with humans. There would be no ?wholesale slaughter,? he added, but did not specify how many elephants might be killed. The announcement follows months of impassioned debate, with some conservationists, including the World Wildlife Fund, cautiously arguing for elephant culling to protect the ecosystem, and other groups outraged. South Africa had just 200 elephants at the beginning of the 20th century and now has 18,000, a number expected to double by 2020. The new regulations say killing must be through ?quick and humane methods,? preferably a single shot to the brain by a marksman in a helicopter.Read Full Article Hamas Claims Responsibility for BlastThe claim of responsibility in a lethal attack at a shopping center signaled a possible end to a self-imposed moratorium on such attacks by the Islamic group.Read Full Article United Nations: Assembly Calls for Freeze on Death PenaltyThe General Assembly passed, 104 to 54 with 29 abstentions, a nonbinding resolution calling for a moratorium on the death penalty.Read Full Article Japan: Fleet to Hunt Humpback WhalesJapan’s whaling fleet will leave port shortly for the South Pacific with orders to kill up to 50 humpbacks, the first known large-scale hunt for the acrobatic, singing whales since a 1963 moratorium.Read Full Article External News for: moratoriumRussia: Moratorium on Executions - New York TimesRussia: Moratorium on ExecutionsNew York TimesRussia's Constitutional Court extended the country's moratorium on the death penalty on Thursday, though it stopped short of fully ...Russian court extends moratorium on death penaltyReutersRussia extends 10 year moratorium on the death penaltyExaminer.comRussia moves one step closer to death penalty abolitionAmnesty InternationalBloomberg -RTT News -Reuters South Africaall 267 news articles »Russia: Moratorium on Executions - New York TimesRussia: Moratorium on ExecutionsNew York TimesRussia's Constitutional Court extended the country's moratorium on the death penalty on Thursday, though it stopped short of fully ...Russian court extends moratorium on death penaltyReutersRussia extends 10 year moratorium on the death penaltyExaminer.comRussia moves one step closer to death penalty abolitionAmnesty InternationalBloomberg -RTT News -Reuters South Africaall 267 news articles »Accredited Business Consolidators Corp.
