Iran: Four hanged in publicNCRI-The Iranian regime publically hanged four people in Borazjan, southern Boushehr province, on Thursday  July 10, reported “Khalij Fars” provincial News Agency.

The public hangings were carried out after the mullahs' judiciary chief, Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi, announced last February that "The death penalty should be carried out behind closed doors." He also banned television footages and publication of photographs of executions.

But the ruling clerics, fearing the increasing popular uprisings and protests have turned to its medieval public hanging to terrorize the people.

Another prisoner was hanged in Sanandaj central prison, western Iran, on July 10. Execution of Ahmad Khalaj took place while he could not stand on his feet due to his ailment. His sentence was carried out in total violation of international human rights regulations.
