Iran: A young man sentenced to a barbaric punishment of having his eyes blinded by Sulfuric acid

National Council of Resistance of IranNCRI – The Iranian regime’s Supreme Court approved a barbaric sentence of blinding the eyes of a young man by pouring Sulfuric acid in his eyes.

Mullahs’ judiciary in Tehran had earlier sentenced the 27-year-old man by the name of Majid to have his eyes blinded by pouring 10 drops of Sulfuric acid in them. The sentence was issued based on mullahs’ inhuman and barbaric laws under the name of religious law.

For the past 30 years, the Iranian people had to face with the mullahs’ religious tyranny which has only brought misery and hardship to them and their most basic rights have been violated in the most brutal manner. Keeping silence on the ruling religious fascism’s cruelty in the past 30 years has emboldened the regime in its bid to suppress the Iranian people.

The Iranian Resistance calls on all human rights organizations in particular the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights to condemn such medieval practices and reiterates that the referral of the regime’s human rights dossier to the UN Security Council for adoption of binding measures is more crucial today than any other time.
