LOS ANGELES, March 21 — Death row inmates in Idaho could be executed by firing squad if no lethal injection is available, according to a bill passed yesterday by the legislature of the western US state.
Idaho would the become the fifth US state to approve execution by firing squad, after Utah, Oklahoma, Mississippi, and South Carolina, according to the Death Penalty Information Centre. The US states which have the death penalty have been experiencing great difficulty in obtaining the chemical components necessary for a lethal injection, due to opposition by pharmaceutical companies which do not want to be associated with executions.The American Civil Liberties Union denounced the passage of the law as “appalling”, calling the legislation “archaic.”
