24 in Iran Face Execution

At least 24 people arrested in Iran face execution for their involvement in the anti-government protests that have swept the nation as demonstrators demand women’s rights. Twenty-five demonstrators were accused of “waging war against God” – a charge that 23-year-old Mohsen Shekari was found guilty of before he was hung last week. The UN condemned the execution and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said it was “clearly designed to send a chilling effect to the rest of the protesters.”
