The penalties don’t need to be so severe, only they need to be enforced and no one is above the law.
Frankly, I’m a bit wary of executions, because they open convenient way of getting rid of opposition. All is needed is to fabricate some evidence, and have the person executed. Once that’s done there’s no way to being the person back, even when you have proof they were innocent.
They don’t need such severe penalties to get rid of political opponents. But of course where you stand on the case will depend on your trust in government and giving them the power to execute people will really depend on that as well.

I think that even if you trust the government there is always possibility of a mistake and you can’t undo an execution.
