IRAN: 106 WOMEN EXECUTED UNDER ROUHANI

January 24, 2020:

According to the data the Women’s Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran collected from material published by the Iranian state-run press, human rights activists and their websites, or from private sources in touch with the Iranian Resistance, 106 of those executed during Rouhani’s tenure have been women. Nevertheless, the actual figures are definitely higher, as most executions in Iran are carried out secretly without anyone knowing except those who carry it out.
