The four most prominent practitioners of capital punishment include Iran, China, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, many of which are located in the Asia-pacific region. Additionally, most countries in the Asia-Pacific region create false statistics in regards to their use of the death penalty.

Representatives for this position will be staffed by Amnesty International; an organisation specializing in the promotion of human rights. In regards to the corrupt justice officials that report false death penalty records, International Prison Reform Monitors and third-party judiciary officials will be used to attend all court cases or hearings of any type that can potentially lead to the use of the death penalty.

Finally, noting that capital punishment is also used to strike fear in the general public, all executions will be required to be carried
