Abstract

Considers the criminal justice system in Latvia. Though the Parliament of the Republic of Latvia abolished the death penalty on July 6, 1993, with a clemency board now in place, public attitudes to punishment remain highly punative. The abolition of capital punishment is a standard requirement to access the EU.
