TEHRAN, Iraq (AP) -- Iranian state television's Web site says 29 people convicted of murder, drug trafficking and other criminal charges have been hanged in Tehran's Evin prison.
The Web site says the convicts included people found guilty of murder, rape, armed robbery and drug trafficking. The hangings were carried out after the death verdicts were approved by Iran's Supreme Court.
Murder, rape, armed robbery, kidnapping and drug trafficking are all punishable by death under Iran's strict Islamic regime.
The hangings bring to more than 100 the number of people executed in Iran so far this year.
apparently not mentioned in the report, you can also hang for being gay. I think this breaches what freedom stands for and I don't take to liking Nations that hangs non violent gay people.
