Sources in Iran say that the high court of #IRI judiciary has approved the death penalty for 2 more people in the group accused of participation in the stabbing of #Basij member in late September 2021.
They were transferred to #RajaiShahr prison in #Karaj.
#MohammadGhobadlou and #MohammadBoroghani facing execution by hanging in coming days.
Despise the clear violation of IRI's #Sharia law that denies the "ghesas" (execution) to be used when more than one person was involved in the alleged crime and despise request from family of the victim, the Islamic high court refered to the case as an act of rebellion against the rule of "god" and denied all other requests because the crime was comited as a direct rebellion against forces of regime and that all those involved had "intention" to kill.
Something that many scholars inside the regime are opposing, but #Reisi, with the backing of hard line #IRGC leadership and #Khamenei himself is forcing these executions to "teach others a lesson". None of the accused were given the right to impartial review of their case, nor had access to a lawyer during the short and unjst court session where they were interviewd on TV to confes to their "crime" after long and brutal torture in prison.
