TEHRAN-Iran has executed six people in public in the northeastern city of Sabzevar, state radio said on Monday, the second report of a public execution in the Islamic Republic in less than a week.Judiciary chief Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi-Shahroudi in January ordered a halt to public executions in Iran unless they had his approval, "based on social necessities."The radio described the convicts as "wicked" people but did not say what crimes they had been convicted of nor when they were put to death. Iran usually carries out executions in prisons by hanging.Murder, adultery, rape, armed robbery, apostasy and drug trafficking are all punishable by death under Iran's Sharia law, enforced since Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution.On Saturday, an Iranian newspaper said four convicted murderers were hanged in public in the southern province of Bushehr. The same day, police in the capital Tehran launched a renewed drive to crack down on drug dealers and other "troublemakers", building on an operation implemented last year, official media said."Those arrested in this operation will be kept in special camps under special conditions ... These individuals are liable to receive the death sentence for their crimes," Tehran prosecutor Saeed Mortazavi was quoted as saying.Amnesty International in April listed Iran as the world's second most prolific executioner last year, with at least 317 people put to death, trailing only China which carried out 470 death sentences.Iran rejects accusations it is violating human rights and accuses the West of double standards and hypocrisy.PS:APOSTASY happens in Iran when--for example--a muslim converts to christianity...
TROUBLEMAKERS...also includes these new christians and christians in general.
Let's not forget the persecution of other religious groups and of course the HORRENDOUS TREATMENT of WOMEN...
HOW DO YA'LL LIKE SHARIA'A LAW????????
As in the days of Noah...
