 The clerical regime hanged three prisoners on December 7. According to
reports by state-run media, a woman was hanged in Shirvan (northeast
Iran) and two men named Abdulreza Akbaridiba, 28, and Farhad
Akbaridiba, 22, from Asadabad in Hamedan, were executed in the
Arak-Khomein (western Iran) highway.
The state-run daily, Kayhan, reported on December 6 that Rostam Tajik,
20, was going to be hanged in public on December 10. He has been in
prison for nearly five years. He was less than 15 at the time of the
alleged crime, and 16 when sentenced to death. The Supreme Court
recently upheld the death sentence for Mr. Tajik.
The Iranian Resistance draws the attention of international human
rights organizations to the increasing number of executions in Iran, in
particular the execution of minors, and demands condemnation of the
alarming wave of executions and the increasing violations of human
rights in Iran. It calls for the referral of the clerical regime's
human rights crimes to the UN Security Council for adoption of
appropriate and binding measures.
