Amnesty International today expressed outrage at the reported execution by stoning of Ja’far Kiani on 5 July 2007 in
the village of Aghche-kand, near Takestan in Iran’s Qazvin province. The organization urged the Head of the Judiciary,
Ayatollah Hashemi Shahroudi, to immediately intervene to prevent the execution by stoning of Mokarrameh Ebrahimi,
a woman convicted in the same case.
