Another demonstrator has been sentenced to death in connection with the system-critical protests in Iran. As the justice portal Misan reports, this is 19-year-old Mohammed B. .
The Supreme Court is said to have upheld the verdict. B. is said to have attacked and injured security forces with a weapon. He is accused of “waging war against God” – an act which, according to Islamic law, is punishable by death.
So far, two protesters have been executed in Iran for their involvement in anti-regime protests. According to Iranian media reports, 20 other people are said to be on the judiciary’s death list.
According to Iranian activists and human rights groups abroad, more than 500 people died during the protests – mainly demonstrators, but also security forces. More than 18,500 demonstrators are said to have been arrested. Iran has not confirmed this information, but has not denied it either. Tehran’s brutal crackdown on the demonstrators, and in particular the two executions, were condemned at home and abroad. (dzc/SDA)
