Capital punishment in Nauru
Capital punishment is legal in Nauru, but it has not imposed since Nauru became independent in 1968. Amnesty International currently categories Nauru as abolitionist in practice. Nauruis not yet party to the Second Optional Protocol to the ICCPR. In December 2012, Nauru voted in favour of the Resolution on a Moratorium on the Use of the Death Penalty at the UN General Assembly. Nauru was not present for the most recent vote in the United Nations General Assembly on a moratorium on the death penalty in December 2014.
