The Iranian regime hanged a prisoner in the city of Mashhad, northeast Iran, on Tuesday based on drug-related charges.
One of the inmates,, Ahmad Shekarabi, was said to be innocent, according to his cellmates.
His execution was ruled out by the regime’s so-called supreme court and yet he was sentenced to death by Mashhad’s “revolutionary court”.
