Iran’s regime slated to execute innocent young Jew on Monday

Almost Heaven

Well-known
The Islamic Republic of Iran’s opaque judicial system is expected to execute a young Iranian Jew on Monday for an altercation involving his self-defense that led to the death of a Muslim man, the Jerusalem Post has confirmed.

Beni Sabti, an expert on Iran from the Institute for National Security Studies, told the Post that the Iranian Jew, who faces the arbitrary use of the death penalty in the totalitarian Islamic Republic, is named Nethanel ben Ziona Ghahremani.

Ziona Ghahremani lives in the western Iranian city of Kermanshah and is believed to be either 23-years-old or 24-years-old. Sabti posted a picture of the man on his X feed.

Why is Iran murdering the young man?​

Sabti wrote “This Iranian Jewish man is going to be executed due to act of self-defense against a Muslim man who attacked him with knife but was killed himself.”
 

Jewish Iranian sentenced to death for murder receives last-minute stay of execution​

Arvin Nathaniel Ghahremani was allegedly defending himself against knife attack when he killed Amir Shokri in brawl; international rights groups working to have sentenced commuted

A Jewish Iranian man who was set to be executed this week for killing a man in a brawl two years ago received a last-minute stay of execution on Sunday, postponing his death for an additional month.

Arvin Nathaniel Ghahremani, 20, was sentenced to death and was expected to be executed on Monday under the Iranian penal code for retributive justice — or “Qisas” in Arabic — after allegedly killing a man named as Amir Shokri in self-defense when attacked with a knife two years ago, the opposition-linked Iran International news website said last week.

In a last-minute turn of events, however, he received a stay of execution amid extensive efforts by his family and international human rights organization to have his sentence commuted, Ynet reported, citing unnamed sources in the Iranian Jewish community.

 

Iran Postpones Execution of 20-year-old Jewish Man​

An Iranian Jewish man who was scheduled to be executed on Saturday was given an 11-hour stay of execution, followed by the decision to postpone the sentence for a full month.

The initial 11-hour stay of execution was secured by Norway-based Iran Human Rights Group (IHRNGO), which pleaded on Friday for a temporary delay, which led to a month’s postponement.


This article had more details about the Stay. Looks like he'll still face the punishment unless something else changes... he just has some time.
