UN call to stop public hanging in Iran
|
On Thursday 12 March, Dr Alejo Vidal-Quadras, President of the
International Committee in Search of Justice (ISJ) and former Vice-President of
European Parliament (1999-2014) was the key-note speaker in a conference held
at Palais de Nations, the UN Headquarters in Geneva, on the deteriorating
situation of human rights in Iran.
In his speech, Vidal-Quadras said: “Iran, under the so called moderate
Rouhani, has executed many more prisoners than Ahmadinejad during the same
period. In fact, it is number one in the world for the highest number of
executions per capita with 1300 or 1400 executions during Rouhani’s term.”
