In just 30 days, there have been 54 executions, including 11 on July 23 alone. Iman Sabzikar, a political prisoner, was publicly hanged on this same day in Shiraz, in south-central Iran. This is the first public hanging in two years, a passage in the nightmarish history of human rights abuses committed by the mullahs, and it is included in the Iranian regime’s most recent report card on executions.
