3 Apr 08

Iran Human Rights, April 2: Three men were executed in the month of March. Two of them were hanged on March 5 and one was hanged on March 12. All of them took place in the prison of Isfahan.

At least three women were scheduled to be executed in Tehran on March 5. But due to the national and international focus, the executions were postponed. At least one of the executions was postponed for one month. They remain at the imminent risk of execution.

Normally, there are fewer executions in the month of March, due to the Iranian new year (Nowrooz) which takes place on March 21. The new year vacations last for 14 days, where all the newspapers are closed most of this period.
