Capital punishment in Chile

[1][2] This places Chile among the seven countries globally that have abolished capital punishment solely for ordinary crimes.

[3] Chile has actively supported the United Nations Moratorium on the death penalty since 2007 and has consistently voted in its favor.

Additionally, Chile is a signatory to the Second Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which aims for the global abolition of capital punishment.

[4] However, Chile has invoked a reservation under Article 2.1 of the treaty, permitting execution during wartime for the conviction of the most serious military-related crimes committed during such periods.
