This report addresses Barbados' compliance with its international human rights obligations
with respect to the death penalty.
This report recommends that Barbados finalize its efforts to abolish the death penalty,
commute the sentences of people currently under sentence of death, bring detention
conditions into compliance with international human rights standards, and ensure the fair
trial and due process rights of all persons suspected of committing crimes, including crimes
that are currently capital offenses.
