Practice Relating to Rule 135. Children
Section D. Death penalty on children
Chad’s Instructor’s Manual (2006) states with regard to the protection of children: “[T]he death penalty for an offence related to the armed conflict shall not be executed on persons who had not attained the age of 18 at the time the offence was committed.”
In 1997, in its initial report to the Committee on the Rights of the Child, Chad stated: “The death penalty is not applicable to minors.”
