NCRI – In a period of three days, the mullahs’ judiciary hanged two people in public, hanged a teenager and hanged two other people in the notorious Evin Prison.

The mullahs’ judiciary hanged an 18 year old in public on Wednesday for a crime he had allegedly committed as a child. Another teenager called Sina, 18, who had also recently turned 18 had his death sentence suspended at the last minute for a period of two months.

Two men identified as Amanollah and Abdollah Diyargard were hanged in public in the central city of Bafeq, the state-run news agency IRNA reported on September 21. Separately, two young men were hanged in Evin Prison.

Seven people were sentenced to death in the southeastern city of Zahedan, the semi-official daily Kayhan reported. A young man identified as Morteza and a 40-year-old woman named Zahra were sentenced to death, according to the state-run daily Kargozaran.

The Iranian Resistance draws the attention of international human rights and children’s rights organizations attention to the flagrant violation of human rights and children rights by the mullahs’ regime, which is a signatory to the "Convention against Children Abuse." And it calls for urgent measures by the international organizations to prevent the medieval mullahs’ regime from committing such heinous crimes.
