Iran: executed all adult men in one village

Human rights groups condemned the executions

Important News

The entire adult male population of a village in southern Iran has been executed for drug offences, according to Iran’s vice-president for women and family affairs.
The matter came to light earlier this week after Shahindokht Molaverdi revealed it during an interview with the semi-official Mehr news agency in rare comments from a senior government official highlighting the country’s high rate of executions of drug traffickers.
“We have a village in Sistan and Baluchestan province where every single man has been executed,” she said, without naming the place or clarifying whether the executions took place at the same time or over a longer period. “Their children are potential drug traffickers as they would want to seek revenge and provide money for their families. There is no support for these people.”
According to Amnesty International, Iran remains a prolific executioner, second only to China. In 2014, at least 753 people were hanged in Iran, of whom more than half were drug offenders. In 2015, Amnesty said it had recorded “a staggering execution rate” in the Islamic republic, “with nearly 700 people put to death in the first half of the year alone”.

Director General of the Iranian regime’s Department of Citizenry and Foreign Migrants in Khorasan Razavi Province in northeast Iran said, “Currently there are 20,000 kids without birth certificates in Mashhad. All these children are the result of Iranian women marrying foreign nationals, especially Afghans and Iraqis.”

They are not covered by the law of having an Iranian mother because their marriages are not official.
