Capital punishment is a legal penalty in Kenya. Since before independence, is still provided for under Kenyan law. No executions have been carried out in Kenya since 1987, when Hezekiah Ochuka and Pancras Oteyo Okumu, leaders of the 1982 coup d'état attempt, were hanged for treason. Presidents have on occasion commuted all death sentences to life imprisonment, and thereby releasing all inmates from death row, most recently in 2016. There is no current policy to abolish the death penalty.

  • La pena capital ha sido practicada en Kenia desde antes de su independencia, y aún permanece dentro de la jurisdicción del país. Desde 1987, no se han llevado ejecuciones en el país, cuándo Hezekiah Ochuka y Pancras Oteyo Okumu fueron ahorcados por el delito de traición.​​ En 2009, Kenia conmutó todas las sentencias de muerte a cadena perpetua, que afectó a 4 000 reclusos condenados a muerte. Esta acción fue realizada para que los prisioneros pudieran trabajar, algo que estaba privado para los reos.​ (es)

  • Capital punishment is a legal penalty in Kenya. Since before independence, is still provided for under Kenyan law. No executions have been carried out in Kenya since 1987, when Hezekiah Ochuka and Pancras Oteyo Okumu, leaders of the 1982 coup d'état attempt, were hanged for treason. Presidents have on occasion commuted all death sentences to life imprisonment, and thereby releasing all inmates from death row, most recently in 2016. There is no current policy to abolish the death penalty. Despite the lack of executions, death sentences are still passed in Kenya. In July 2013, Ali Babitu Kololo was sentenced to death for his role in the murder and kidnapping of two British tourists, and in 2014 a nurse received a death sentence after being convicted of carrying out an abortion on a woman who subsequently died.
