Tehran, Iran, Jan. 07 – An Iranian court has sentenced a teenage rape victim to death by hanging after she weepingly confessed that she had unintentionally killed a man who had tried to rape both her and her niece.
The state-run daily Etemaad reported on Saturday that 18-year-old Nazanin confessed to stabbing one of three men who had attacked the pair along with their boyfriends while they were spending some time in a park west of the Iranian capital in March 2005. Nazanin, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, said that after the three men started to throw stones at them, the two girls’ boyfriends quickly escaped on their motorbikes leaving the pair helpless. She described how the three men pushed her and her 16-year-old niece Somayeh onto the ground and tried to rape them, and said that she took out a knife from her pocket and stabbed one of the men in the hand. As the girls tried to escape, the men once again attacked them, and at this point, Nazanin said, she stabbed one of the men in the chest. The teenage girl, however, broke down in tears in court as she explained that she had no intention of killing the man but was merely defending herself and her younger niece from rape, the report said. The court, however, issued on Tuesday a sentence for Nazanin to be hanged to death. Last week, a court in the city of Rasht, northern Iran, sentenced Delara Darabi to death by hanging charged with murder when she was 17 years old. Darabi has denied the charges. In August 2004, Iran’s Islamic penal system sentenced a 16-year-old girl, Atefeh Rajabi, to death after a sham trial, in which she was accused of committing “acts incompatible with chastity”. The teenage victim had no access to a lawyer at any stage and efforts by her family to retain one were to no avail. Atefeh personally defended herself and told the religious judge that he should punish those who force women into adultery, not the victims. She was eventually hanged in public in the northern town of Neka. That's some crazy shit.

I thought a 55 year sentence for selling marijuana was harsh! It's hard to believe the UN and other human rights orgainzations aren't intervening.

Americans like to believe that the world is a wonderful place, and despite the 'War on Terror,' or the crime in the ghettos of our cities, that everything is fine.
Man, f**k all that. People need a wakeup call. People all over the globe are murdered by the hand of their government on a daily basis. |

That's so unfair! She was freaking assaulted and almost raped! It was all self defense, and she even said she didn't mean to. What are they hanging her for? Shouldn't the people who attacked her get hanged?

 Poor girl. What a shame to the court. |

Men can do whatever the heck they want sleep with 80 girls whatever and if a women GETS RAPED they call it adultery and say OFF WITH HER HEAD! It's so horrible |

You guys think this is crazy? About two years ago, women who grew up having to cover every inch of their skin and had to do it because of their religion. When they accidentally revealed their hand, they were shot as penalty. This isn't a surprise to me.
