Iran Executions: Three Men Hanged at Minab Prison

Iran Human Rights (IHR) – Three men were hanged for murder charges at the southern Iranian city of Minab last Sunday.

According to IHR sources, on Sunday, June 14, three men were hanged at Minab prison for murder charges. IHR could identify them as Ali Karimi, Mohammad Parvaei and Amirali Shadabi. 

“Amirali Shadabi killed a person during a gang fight. Two others committed murder during fights for financial reasons,” a well-informed source told IHR.

None of the aforementioned executions was announced by the Iranian authorities so far.  

At least 110 people were executed in Iran in the first half of 2019; Only 37 of the executions have been announced by authorities or Iranian media. Iran Human Rights (IHR) could confirm 73 more through its sources. IHR only reports the unannounced executions if it could confirm those with two separate credible sources. Therefore, the actual number of executions may be even higher than reported.
