From a comment below.

"b.) Interpretation of the right to life
In General Comment No. 614, the Human Rights Committee stressed the importance of the protection against arbitrary deprivation of life, by considering that States should take measures not only to prevent and punish deprivation of life by criminal acts but also to prevent arbitrary killings by their own security forces (par. 3). To this end, States should enact laws controlling the circumstances in which a person may be deprived of his life by the authorities."

I'm not that worried about prison escapees, though I would prefer that it said all legitimate means to stop an escape had been tried and that shooting to wound is the preference. I'm more worried that anyone, considered or perceived to be avoiding arrest, for whatever reasons, could be shot.

So, the constitution is at odds with these goals?
