Iran Executions: Man Hanged at Kermanshah Prison

According to IHR sources, on the morning of Saturday, April 27, a prisoner was hanged at Kermanshah Central Prison (also known as Dizelabad prison). The prisoner has been identified as Shayan Ebrahimi, 21. 

According to the Iran Human Rights statistic department, the majority of executions in 2017 and 2018 in Iran was for murder charges. At least 188 prisoners were executed for murder charges in 2018. Only 33% of executions were announced by Iranian authorities in 2018.
There is a lack of a classification of murder by degree in Iran which results in issuing a death sentence for any kind of murder regardless of intensity and intent.
