[Summary] => The execution of five death convicts will push through this year unless President Arroyo or the Supreme Court orders a stay.

Justice Secretary Hernando Perez said yesterday they will tell the Supreme Court that they are duty- bound to carry out the provisions of the Heinous Crimes Act, which restored capital punishment in 1994.

"We cannot suspend the implementation of the law," he said. "Unless of course the President issues a reprieve or if the SC would issue a temporary restraining order."

Former Davao City policeman Rolando Pagdayaon, 43, and former taxi driver Filomeno Serrano, 46, both convicted child rapists, are scared of meeting death on the days appointed for their execution by lethal injection.

Under the Heinous Crimes Law passed in 1994, only a presidential pardon or commutation can save the life of death row convict Alfredo Nardo.

Sources said the lower court set Nardo’s execution date a year after the Supreme Court (SC) upheld his death sentence. Under the law, death row convicts must be executed within 18 months after the High Court ruling.
