Writing a death notice in the newspapers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does what is written in the newspaper count as a form of discretionary punishment?

Answer:
It may be a news report, it may be a biographical introduction at times, it may attribute it to him, it may not attribute it to him, but the general rule is that it is a news report, or a biography of him, or praise of him. Yes.
