Stop the Execution of Minor (Updated)
By Kamangir • Jul 17th, 2007 • Category: Children, Human Rights, Iran, Islam, Islamic RepublicSina Paimard will be executed tomorrow morning. His lawyer describes the circumstances under which he has committed murder. Reportedly, when he was sixteen and half, in a quarrel in a park in Tehran, he killed a local drug dealer. A year and half later he was taken to the gallows, where he asked for a flute and the impression he made saved his life for a while. The victim’s family are asking for $200,000, half of which is available to his family. He will be executed tomorrow if nothing happens. Prominent Iranian bloggers, including Khorshid Khanoom, are asking for intervention. The plan is to postpone the execution and to ask everyone to help collect the ransom. The collected money is what his father had been able to sell their house for. His mother is an unemployed nurse.
Please help broadcast the message.
Update: Execution postponed for one week.
