Looks like more fun in the sun in good old Iran. Are we ever gonna bomb these primitive monkeys, or what?
TEHRAN, Iran — In a rare confirmation, on Tuesday said a man convicted of adultery was stoned to death last week in a village in the northern part of the country, Iran’s judiciary spokesman said.
Jafar Kiani was stoned to death in Aghchekand village, 124 miles west of the capital, Tehran, on Thursday, Ali Reza Jamshidi told reporters. It was the first time in years that Iran has confirmed such an execution.
“This verdict was carried out Thursday,” Jamshidi told reporters.
Death sentences are carried out in Iran after they are upheld by the Supreme Court. Under Iran’s Islamic law, adultery is punishable by stoning.
Jamshidi didn’t elaborate on how the stoning was carried out, but under Islamic rulings, a male convict is usually buried up to his waist while a female criminal is buried up to her neck with her hands also buried.
Those carrying out the verdict start throwing stones and rocks at the convict until he or she dies. }} more…
