What are the death sentences you can think of?
Shooting or drug injection, these two are currently the most common internationally, but if you happen to love Westerns, then one more hanging; After watching more American prison movies, then add another electric chair.
And there is such a country in the world, he will let you jump off a cliff, in addition to jumping off a cliff, there is actually an even more incredible punishment.
Hello everyone, I am the third sister of the tripartite investigator.

Heaven reports to one: as long as it is in accordance with the law, there is no fear of age
Iran, a Middle Eastern country located in West Asia, was formerly known as Persia.
Iran
The people of Iran mainly believe in Islam, with more than 90% of the country's population, and some of them believe in Christianity and Judaism, but the number is pitifully small.
According to the Qur'an, the holy text of Islam: "Everyone has the right to live, with an exception to this principle, unless condemned to death by the law." ”
Therefore, the belief of believers is: "Do not kill the soul of Allah endowment, except after due process of law." ”
That is, as long as the law convicts you, you will be punished, and as long as the law is OK, it is perfectly compliant to execute a person.
Among them, the most controversial is the punishment of juvenile death row prisoners.
Due to the laws of the entire country, there is no protection of minors at all, so age is not a problem at all, and the trial of children who commit crimes should be punished, never delayed, and the crime is extremely evil and wants to be sentenced to life? No, direct death penalty.
But with the establishment of international juvenile law and calls by some pacifists to "abolish the death penalty," Iran said it would be difficult.
It's hard to do, and it's not a matter of someone condemning you every day.
So in 1968, Iran signed the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child was signed in 1991
United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child
In 2012, the government officially announced that it would work on revising the regulations of the Juvenile Protection Law, and also changed the age of criminal responsibility for minors under the old law from 15 for boys and 9 years for girls to 18 years old.
Look, I'm on the road, I have the look you want.
In fact, juvenile offenders in Iran still cannot escape the death penalty, and once sentenced, they only continue to live for a few years, because once juvenile offenders reach the age of 18, they can be sent directly for execution, and no matter how good they are, it is useless.
Iran's behavior of "selling dog meat on sheep's heads" was discovered not long after, and international condemnation of him became even stronger.
reprimand
In the end, Iran said it would weaken the severity of the sentence and only impose penalties for "very bad" behavior, but did not expect that this "very bad" was just a feigned nonsense.
Atefeh was born in a slum in Necka, Iran, a desperate baby, who lost his mother at the age of 5 and soon after, his brother, his father was addicted to drugs, and the family was destitute.
It is a good thing to grow up a little and turn out to be outstanding, but beauty is poison for Atfi, because she is easily violated without money and power.
Atefeh
It is possible to be abducted while walking on the street, it is possible that someone will enter through the window while sleeping, it is so terrifying, and the status of Iranian women is simply low to the dust, and it is more likely that the girl will be directly responsible for something wrong.
Therefore, most Iranian women bring a knife when they go out in case they need it.
Atefeh
Atfi easily caught the eye of Ali Darabi, a former National Guard policeman and former taxi driver.
Ali Darabi
Darabi is not a beautiful boy, on the contrary, he is a 51-year-old married man with children, after taking a fancy to Atfi, he insulted her many times for 3 years, and was later found to have only been imprisoned, but Atfi was accused of serious crimes and sentenced to death.
In the appeal, the judge, completely disregarding Atfi's age, psychology and persecution, always asked:
judge
Do you know that losing your virginity is wrong?
Have you memorized the teachings of our Qur'an?
As a woman, why do you want to show up and hook up with your husband?
Atfi understood that he would definitely lose the case, so he took off his headscarf in court, according to the teachings of Islam in the Qur'an: a woman's hair can only belong to her husband, and to show other men that a woman is unfaithful to her feelings and will be punished very severely.
Atfi takes off his headscarf
Atefi's removal of the hijab means rebellion, against the oppression of women by men and against the unfair treatment of themselves.
Atefi argued that Darabi should be punished, not her, and then took off his shoes and threw them at the judge. The act was seen as a gross contempt of the court, and the judge was furious and sentenced her to hanging.
Atfi was executed
It was publicly executed in 2004. According to her birth certificate, she was 16 years old when she was hanged.

Heaven Report Two: You can marry four wives, but you can't have prostitutes
Iran has many punishments and punishments, but most of them are carried out by hanging.
The environment of hanging is basically a big square, and the tools of hanging are very strong ropes and cranes, without any bells and whistles, which can be said to be very simple and rude.
hanging
As soon as the rope was buckled, the crane was pulled, and the lucky moment returned to the west, unfortunately becoming the focus of the onlookers, but waiting for ten or twenty minutes, guaranteed to send it away.
Blindfolded
However, for the following acts, the traditional criminal law is rarely maintained. In Iran, you can marry four wives, but you must not have a wife and a prostitute, what cheating, what affair, what Xiaomi 12345, all of them.
How about otherwise? The male whipping first, smoking a hundred and eighty lashes, but also pay attention to the rhythm, can not be light or heavy, can not be hurried or slow, because the whip death can not solve the hatred in the heart, after smoking, and then send it to the crane to mention, let him return to the west;
Flogging first
Rear crane
What about women? In fact, we have a preliminary understanding that women have a very low status in Iran, and the law rarely protects them, and they will only be worse. It is also true that women convicted of are sentenced to stoning.
Stoning
The earliest forms of stoning punished men and women who had a disorderly relationship and buried them in the soil, generally to the waist of men and to the shoulders of women.
Men and women are buried in different locations
Then find a few baskets of stones, not too big, smaller, the main thing is to be afraid that if the punishment is not finished, the person will go.
Finally, relatives or law enforcers take the lead and throw stones at the buried person, and if in the process, the punished person breaks free from the bondage of the land, it means that God has forgiven him, and the punishment ends there, but if he cannot break free, he will be tortured until the end of his life.
Soraya, a 35-year-old woman, was publicly shaped like a stone in a small village in Iran in 1986. She was allegedly accused by her husband of having an improper relationship with another man, and testified by three of her husband's friends, and was eventually convicted of adultery by a court.
Sophia was stoned
In fact, her husband, a prison guard with a criminal record, suddenly took a fancy to a 14-year-old young and beautiful girl, so he wanted to get rid of his original wife without paying a dowry, thought about it, and finally decided to do nothing and kill her.
Although the scheme succeeded without much effort, what is more tragic is that she was buried in the ground by her own family, neighbors, husband and children, and after tamping the ground, she was stoned away.
In 2013, Iran changed its law to replace hanging for erotica.
However, according to the report of the Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Iran, Ahmad Shahid, to the UN General Assembly on 30 September 2016:
Ahmed Shaheed
Since 2015, at least two convicted women have been stoned. From 1980 to 2009, a total of 150 people were executed by stoning in Iran, most of them women, according to Amnesty International.
In July 2016, the Iranian government claimed that the judiciary had changed these sentences to other punishments and that stoning had never been carried out in recent years. They also criminalize adultery, conform to its interpretation of Islamic law, and as an effective deterrent to ensure that no one dares to mess around, recorded three death sentences in 2017.
Recorded stoning
As of November 19, 2019, the International Federation for Human Rights issued a statement saying that stoning as a form of adultery in Iran is still "prescribed by law" and that "several people have been sentenced to stoning on death row."

Heaven Report Three: The "Cliff" Road of Gays
Similar to the status of women, in Iran, romantic relationships between people of the same sex are shameful, and if discovered, they are almost invariably charged and, if they occur, executed.
Iran divides this form of "crime" into two types, one intentional on both sides and one by force.
If both parties wished, they were punished with a flogging and a fine, but the most murderous thing was that the court would separate the two of them, usually forcing one of them to leave the city and go far away;
If they are "forced" to be unclean, the prisoner will be charged by the government and face the death penalty.
In ancient Iran, people would take prisoners to some cliffs, tie their hands, and push them down from the top of the cliff.
Falling off a cliff
In modern times, due to the gradual urbanization of the country, it is no longer good to find a suburb and a cliff, so the location is often set on a tall building with a more central and square, one is to facilitate public executions, and the other is to facilitate "aftercare".
Modern "cliff fall"
According to official Iranian reports, "falling off a cliff" has long ceased to exist, because it is now replaced by hanging, but it seems that in reality, "cliff falling" executions also occasionally occur.
(Please double click on the big brother of the list of untrustworthy)
According to a 2008 report by Amnesty International, in May 2007, six men were arrested after kidnapping two young men in a small town in the eastern region of Shiraz, Iran, robbing them not only of their property but also of their bodies.
Tayyeb Karimi and Yazdan, two of the main robbers, were sentenced to death by a judge for robbery, carried out by pushing them from a height.
The other four men were sentenced to 100 lashes each for robbing only their money.
If Karimi and Yazdan were forced to jump off a cliff because they had a bit of human rights, then the prisoners who were directly thrown off the tall building in a bag amplified all the fears before death.
According to local Iranian news reports, a man was arrested and convicted for forcibly robbing and killing his 16-year-old nephew.
The killer was a carpenter in Mashhad, northwestern Iran, where his nephew worked in his shop. The nephew is not only beautiful, but also works very neatly, which directly moves his heart.
Simulation scenarios
He first carefully expressed his love, and when he was rejected, he became angry, forcibly possessed, and finally brutally killed him to conceal his crime, and the judge ruled that he would be thrown from the cliff in a bag.
Legal experts said he would have been hanged if he had survived the fall. But human rights groups uphold the principle that everyone save, hoping for clemency and commutation of sentences, but little has been heeded.
Later, Iranian human rights activists strongly condemned it internationally, saying that more than 4,000 homosexuals had been secretly executed since 1979.

Heaven Report Four: Forgive me, okay, I will produce two sheep
Although the sentence is basically equivalent to a judge's words, in Iran, there is another way to sentence the death penalty or not: asking for forgiveness.
Pray for forgiveness
As long as you are sincere enough! Sincere enough! The sense of repentance is strong enough! With forgiveness from the victim or the victim's family, you can be released directly in public, whenever and wherever you are, even now on the execution table.
Ali Asghar Borujerdi, born in 1893 in Borujerd, western Iran, was the first Iranian serial killer and rapist reported in the 20th century.
Ali Asghar Borujerdi
He moved to Iraq with his family as a child, his family genes were very violent, his grandfather often attacked caravans for money, and his father was one of the famous bandits in Mashhad, which was later destroyed by the Cossack army.
Ali was also contentious and entered the bureau at the age of 14, but unfortunately, due to his young age, he was released with the consent of the victim's parents. Later, after he was found abusing five children, he was arrested again and sentenced to nine years in prison. However, it didn't take long to squat and successfully escape.
After escaping, Ali became a street vendor, and among the customers who came and went, he looked at handsome boys, made friends with them as a target, and insulted and killed 25 people in a few years.
Simulation scenarios
In late 1932, he fled back to Iran, sold okra in the capital, Tehran, and continued his business, and in January 1933, three mutilated bodies were found on the southern outskirts of Tehran, and the police intervened to investigate.
This is exactly what Ali committed, but even so, he continued to carry out the crime, and in late February, a skull was found in Lalai Park, and later, as if the wicked had their own harvest.
During the investigation, the police happened to meet Ali, who was "working", and found bloody clothes and knives in the bag he carried, and everyone was stolen! It was confirmed that he was the murderer. According to follow-up reports, Ali insulted and killed a total of five adolescent boys in Tehran.
In early July 1933, four months after his arrest, he said in court:
"These are orphans, homeless, and beautiful."
He called his crime a matter of social cleanliness and said that the reason he killed people was because they were enemies of the state.
Finally, at dawn on July 6, 1934, he was hanged in Seppa Square.
is executed
Before the execution, he was originally humorous, as if it had nothing to do with him, but when he saw the crane and the ropes on the crane, realizing the fact that he was about to return to the west, he gave up his stubbornness and suddenly broke the false self-esteem of "clearing for the country".
He suddenly became helpless, his legs and feet were weak and weeping, and he said to the families of the boys who had come to observe the execution:
"If I am saved from this situation, if you can forgive me, I swear two sheep per household".
He cried and shouted, but the parents took advantage of the guards' inattention and pumped him hard with rattan.
In Iranian history, there have indeed been many cases of being forgiven before the death penalty and then released on the spot, but it is clear that the heinous Ali did not have this luck, and the butcher knife held high will eventually wait for the rope to ask for his life.
The law, which is equivalent to the law that the people have made for themselves for the sake of fairness and justice, is a collective demand. It has not only punishment, but also protection.
Iran, the "city of innocence", does not take protection as its root, but threatens punishment, and if the loopholes caused by inequality and injustice are not repaired, the law will eventually become a means for the wicked to realize their desires and breed more evil.
Although the third sister just introduced to you today, Iran's penal system, seems to make us think that this kind of thing is far away from us, but if one day, because we do not understand the law, we are framed and suffered, where and what means to seek justice?
Don't tell me that you think bad people will be reasonable, even if you and I live in a more equal country and a more peaceful era, I hope we can all know, understand, abide by the law, use the law, and protect ourselves well.
Then the above is the investigation report of the third sister, your praise and attention is the greatest encouragement to me, the little sister is grateful, we will see you in the next issue
