Tehran's Evin Prison

Iran Human Rights, March 8: Three men were hanged in Tehran’s Evin prison on Saturday March 5th, reported the government newspaper Iran today.

According to the report all three prisoners who were not identified by name, were Afghan citizens and convicted of raping a woman in Varamin in 2009.

The report didn not mention age of the three men at the time of committing the alleged offence and Iran Human Rights (IHR) can not rule out that there might be minor offenders among those executed on Saturday in Tehran.
