🔴 Sentencing of Naser Bakarzadeh to Death
Human Rights in Iran:
On Wednesday, Naser Bakarzadeh, a resident of West Azerbaijan Province and currently held in Urmia Central Prison, was sentenced to death for the third time.
According to available information, the repeated issuance of a death sentence in this case raises serious concerns regarding the fairness of judicial proceedings and adherence to due process standards. The reimposition of capital punishment, particularly in cases marked by legal ambiguity or previous rulings, underscores ongoing concerns about the application of the death penalty in Iran.
Human Rights in Iran reiterates its opposition to the use of the death penalty and stresses that the right to life and the right to a fair trial are fundamental principles under international human rights law.
