Well some people think his some laws were cruel because (for example) one of his laws was "If a son were to strike his father, the sons hands shall be cut off." and that is just one of many like that.
Yes, some dictatorships, such as Myanmar, operate viciously cruel prison camps for political opponents.

Hammurabi realized that cruel kings had a short reign. He put laws in a codified manner.
I would like to know if Egyptians had cruel puishment and if they did what are them?
The rules of the law were just.
The Hammurabi code consisted of 282 laws written in the Akkadian language that any literate man could read. The laws were cruel with the todays standards and "Eye for Eye" and "Tooth for Tooth" are two of them that we all know about. Feel free to add the other five.
There is always room for change, even when it comes to hurricane laws. Current laws about hurricanes that are good for today may not be the best laws for hurricanes down the road.
they lived real cruel and unusual their laws were really messed up
King Hammurabi was a just king compared to the other kings of that time.
No one is sure if law 87 from Hammurabi'scode is cruel or fair. Laws 66-99 are missing and nobody has ever read them unless they were alive in 1792B.C. I'm sorry i wasn't able to answer your question.
