\nBreathing in Confinement: At dawn on Wednesday, a Baloch female prisoner, sentenced to death for drug-related charges, was hanged in Kerman prison.<\/p>\n
According to ‘Breathing in Confinement,’ the news outlet of the Prisoners’ Rights League in Iran, a Balochi female inmate who had been sentenced to death on drug related charges was executed in Kerman Prison.
\nThis prisoner from Saravan has been identified as \u201cZarkhatun Mazarzehi.\u201d She is mother of a daughter and her husband has passed away.<\/p>\n
Ms. Mazarzehi was detained on December 30, 2017, at the \u201cGhal\u2019eh Zangi\u201d checkpoint in Kerman Province while she intended to travel to Shiraz by bus and was arrested by security forces.<\/p>\n
It is worth mentioning that Ms. Mazarzehi said in her defence statement that the discovered drugs on the bus did not belong to her. However, the court, ignoring her defence, sentenced her to death.<\/p>\n
Mrs. Mazarzehi was denied the right to counsel during her trial.<\/p>\n
Yesterday, “Breathing in Confinement” had published a report on her transfer to solitary confinement and the risk of her execution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
