MirrorNewsOnline.com: "Head of the Presidential Secretariat and Cabinet Secretary, Dr. Roger Luncheon has stated that the administration's position on capital punishment is no secret, noting that many calls will come and go for countries like Guyana to abolish the death penalty.
Speaking at his weekly press briefing on Thursday, Dr Luncheon said, “this administration is not seized with any imperatives to pursue a national discourse about the preservation of capital punishment on the books. The position of this administration is well known. I want to believe that those calls for abandonment of it would continue to be made as often as countries and states that are committed to capital punishment continue to enforce it. It's the kind of world we live in. Some states would hang and some would not hang...We don't live in a world that is free of crime.'"
