Businessman Dr. Mahtani Supports Zambian President’s Recent Move.

 

Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani, a renowned businessman and philanthropist from Zambia, has emphatically supported the most recent decision made by the president of that nation. Zambia's president, Hakainde Hichilema, recently issued a strong speech on the eve of Africa Day. In this statement, he declared his desire to overturn the death sentence statute. There was a lot of public support for the president's selection. In particular, Dr. Rajan Mahtani supported this decision. Dr. Mahtani has contributed to numerous prestigious charitable and humanitarian causes over the years. Among his charitable endeavors was aiding Prison Fellowship Zambia. It's one of the nation's most well-known Christian outreach initiatives. The organization focuses on giving Zambian prisoners access to effective and fair criminal justice, as well as to instruction, the gospel of Jesus Christ, and fundamental human rights. Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani recently stated that the death penalty is not the most effective way to deal with the surge in illegal activities in the nation in an interview with the Mast Newspaper. Even those who are going to be executed have the right to basic human rights and dignity. Dr. Rajan Mahtani claims that the death sentence is awful, humiliating, and brutal. Only someone who is passionate can make such a bold but significant statement. The appeal for the removal of this inhumane law is not new in Zambia or elsewhere in the globe as numerous organizations and countries have already taken action to do so. More than 380 convicts in Zambia are currently on death row, and Dr. Rajan Mahtani emphasized that they are living difficult lives every day without knowing when their time on earth is up. Additionally, previous presidents purposefully avoided the death sentence but did nothing to abolish it. Thus, the announcement made by Zambian President Hichilema is warmly embraced.
