Article 4: The Right to Life and Integrity of the Person Constitutional and Legislative Measures 4.1. The Constitution guarantees the right to life and this right may not be limited and no person may violate it except to the extent specified in section 48 of the Constitution. By virtue of section 48 thereof, death penalty may only be imposed on persons convicted of murder committed in aggravating circumstances. It is also worth noting that Zimbabwe is slowly moving towards the total abolition of the death penalty as evidenced by the fact that the death penalty can no longer be imposed on persons who were under the age of 21years or over 70 years at the time of the commission of the offence and also women. This new constitutional provision is a clear shift from the 1979 Lancaster House Constitution. Additionally the death penalty has also been outlawed for all offences including Treason, Espionage and other military offences. 4.2.
