The Palestinian Society for the Protection of Human Rights and the Environment LAW called for the abolition of the death penalty from Palestinian law and requested the President to refrain from endorsing the court's decision of execution. LAW demands that the PNA refrain from trying civilians at military or state security courts. The procedure of these special courts does not respect the rules of fair trial and encroaches, without any legal foundation or basis, on the jurisdiction of regular courts.
