NCRI – Three women prisoners in Section 7 of the Women's Prison of Gohardasht in Karadj, west of Tehran, are on the verge of execution.
Two of these women sentenced to death are Akram Mohammadi, 35, has served seven years in prison and Ameneh Abdollah-Zadeh, 50, has served nearly 5 years in prison.
According to some reports, three other women prisoners of Section 7 of Gohardasht were executed last week. The executions have not yet been announced.
Faced with Iranian people’ outrage and disgust against rising executions, the mullah’s regime carries out executions in secret.
The Women’s Committee of the NCRI urges international human rights and women's rights organizations to condemn brutal violations of rights in Iran. It calls on them to take necessary measures to withhold execution of these three women prisoners.
