Prisoner hanged in public

The mullahs’ henchmen hanged a man on Wednesday in the central city of Esfahan, state-run Fars news agency reported.

The man identified as Jamshid Hadian, 59, was executed in front of Esfahan "court house," the report said.
On December 18, 2009, the United Nations General Assembly passed a strongly-worded resolution condemning “Serious, ongoing and recurring human rights violations” in Iran, including the increasing number of hangings and stonings, as well as instances of discrimination, brutal suppression of women and ethnic and religious minorities, perpetration of violence and intimidation by state-controlled militias against protestors leading to a large number of deaths and injuries, mass trials, obtaining of forced confessions through torture, and rape.
