Tanzania’s High Court has ruled that there is not enough evidence to challenge the death penalty, which means that it will remain in place.

Nobody has been executed in Tanzania since 1994.
Some 500 convicts in Tanzania's jails face the death penalty or have seen their sentences changed to life prison terms.
