[Title] => Law abolishing death penalty signed on June 24
[Summary] => President Arroyo, who wants the death penalty abolished, said yesterday she will sign a law scrapping capital punishment on June 24, before she leaves for the Vatican.
Congress last week approved a bill abolishing the death penalty despite protests from relatives of crime victims who believe Mrs. Arroyo, a staunch Roman Catholic, rushed approval to please Pope Benedict XVI. The President needs to sign the bill for it to become law.
Mrs. Arroyo will leave on June 24 for Italy before traveling on to Spain.
