UN Elected Iran To Its Women's rights committee - Flogging, Stoning & Eye-Gouging Are Among Iran’s Medieval Punishments for ‘Morality’ Violations
As part of implementing Sharia laws after the Islamic Revolution, the Iranian regime reintroduced punishments such as flogging, stoning amputation of limbs, and eye-Gouging.
The regime in iran implements the Islamic penalty code of 1,400 years ago.
Iran’s regime holds the infamous record of the world’s top executioner per capita. It also ranks first for most number of juvenile executions in the world. Women are also victims of the death penalty in Iran, with dozens of women hanged in public squares every year.
Sadly, the UN is turning a blind eye to Iran’s regime continued practice of cruel and inhuman punishments.
On March 2019 the Islamic Republic of Iran was appointed to the UN Women's rights committee that judges complaints of women's rights violations.
According to UN, the violations that Iran will judge include:
• Stereotypical attitudes towards role of women.
• Violation of women's rights defenders' freedom of expression & assembly • Deaths & torture of women in custody.
• Impunity for violations of human rights of women.
