Iran Focus writes:
On Sunday, August 15, a 16-year-old girl in the town of Neka, northern Iran, was executed. Ateqeh Sahaleh was hanged in public on Simetry Street off Rah Ahan Street at the city center. The sentence was issued by the head of Nekas Justice Department and subsequently upheld by the mullahs Supreme Court and carried out with the approval of Judiciary Chief Mahmoud Shahroudi.
In her summary trial, the teenage victim did not have any lawyer and efforts by her family to recruit a lawyer was to no avail. Ateqeh personally defended herself. She told the religious judge, Haji Rezaii, that he should punish the main perpetrators of moral corruption not the victims.
From Free Iran News:
The animosity and anger of [local judge] Haji Reza was so strong that he personally put the rope around the girl's delicate neck and personally gave the signal to the crane operator, by raising his hand, to begin pulling the rope.
Amnesty International has also issued a statement:
Amnesty International today expressed its outrage at the reported execution of a girl who is believed to be 16 years old, Ateqeh Rajabi, in Neka in the northern Iranian province of Mazandaran, on 15 August, for "acts incompatible with chastity" (amal-e manafe-ye 'ofat). Ateqeh Rajabi was reportedly publicly hanged on a street in the city centre of Neka.
Amnesty International is alarmed that this execution was carried out despite reports that Ateqeh Rajabi was not believed to be mentally competent, and that she reportedly did not have access to a lawyer at any stage.
The execution of Ateqeh Rajabi is the tenth execution of a child offender in Iran recorded by Amnesty International since 1990. Amnesty International has urged Iran's judicial authorities to halt further executions of child offenders - people who were under 18 years old at the time of the offence. This is to bring Iran's law and practice in line with requirements of international human rights law.
But that would be a "man made law" in the eyes of the mullacracy and thus invalid.
Ateqeh Rajabi was murdered by a depraved old man. She was only an offender in the eyes of Sharia, the legal code divinely ordained by Allah. Why should anyone believe that Sharia is the true law? Because the illiterate paedophile rapist, thief, and murderer that Allah appointed to be his final and irrevocable spokesman said so.
The only way to "bring Iran's law and practice in line with requirements of international human rights law" is to invade Iran, hunt down and kill the mullahs and their death squads, and establish a true republican form of government.
And if that gives the socialist filth posing as pacifists a collective heart attack, so much the better.
Faster please.
