58 countries maintain the death penalty in both law and practice.

95 have abolished it.

9 retain it for crimes committed in exceptional circumstances (such as in times of war).

35 permit its use for ordinary crimes, but have not used it for at least 10 years and are believed to have a policy or established practice of not carrying out executions or is under a moratorium.
