Iran issues a death sentence against two demonstrators

On Monday, the Iranian state issued a death sentence against two other demonstrators who participated in the popular protests in Rojhilat and Iran.

The Iranian state transferred two demonstrators, Mohammad Brokhni and Mohammad Qubadlu, to solitary confinement in what has been perceived as a move to carry out the death penalty against them.

The families of the two prisoners and a large number of demonstrators gathered in front of the prison, and demanded that the execution of the death sentence against them be halted.

On Sunday night, human rights activist Anta Daemi announced on her Twitter page that two demonstrators, Mohammad Brokhni and Mohammad Qubadlu, had been taken to solitary confinement to carry out the death penalty.

After learning the news, activists launched a campaign on social networks to stop the execution of the two prisoners and the families of the two young men, as well as many demonstrators gathered in front of Recayi Prison in Kerec.

Mohammad Qubadlu's mother spoke at the demonstration and said: "My son is sick and has a medical report, but these jailers do not accept him," according to Roj News Agency.

According to lawyers and political activists, Muhammad Brokhni (19) and Muhammad Qubadlu (22) were sentenced to death in a mock trial. For their participation in the protests, and on charges of "spreading corruption on earth" and "waging war against God."

Last Saturday, two demonstrators, Muhammad Mahdi Karami and Sayed Muhammad al-Husseini, were executed.
