Pope Leo has declared the death penalty an 'inadmissible' attack on the dignity of the human person, drawing attention in Australia and beyond. The pronouncement reaffirms the Catholic Church's position that capital punishment can never be justified, and is prompting discussion among Catholics, legal commentators and human rights advocates about its implications for death penalty debates worldwide.
Why now: The Pope's strong reaffirmation of the Church's opposition to capital punishment is prompting fresh debate on the death penalty.
