Iran Executions: Man Hanged at Tabriz Prison

Iran Human Rights (IHR); February 1, 2019: A man who was sentenced to death for murder charges, was hanged at Tabriz Central Prison last Tuesday.

According to IHR sources, on the morning of Tuesday, January 29, a man identified as Karim Mohebbi was executed at Tabriz Central Prison.

Kurdistan Human Rights Network has also reported that Karim Mohebbi was arrested four years ago and since then he was held in Tabriz Prison.

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.
