Three Executions and a Public Lashing Sentence
By IHRV | May 7, 2010
In the past three days, three people have been hanged in the cities of Mash-Had and Dezful, and another individual was publicly lashed.
Quds newspaper, in today’s issue, reported that two people convicted of rape were hanged in Mash-Had Prison, but stopped short of identifying the names of the condemned men.
On Tuesday, April 20, a court in the province of Khozestan announced the hanging of an individual only identified as Rahman R., who had been convicted of intentionally causing injury, ultimately leading to the death of a man identified as Davar T. The execution was carried out in Dezful Prison.
The report also added that the execution of another man, Mohammad-Reza D., has been suspended for one week by a request made by the victim’s family members.
A court in Khozestan also issued a statement in which it said a man identified as Reza S. was publicly lashed in the area of Homafaran in Masjed Solaiman for committing an indecent act on April 20. The report did not make any mention of the number of lashes delivered.
