Tehran confirms death sentence for Swedish-Iranian dissident for alleged terror
[IsraelTimes] Habib Chaab has been held in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites....
since he vanished during a visit to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
in October 2020; was found guilty on charges of ’corruption on earth,’ formation of a rebel group


Iran’s judiciary on Sunday confirmed a death sentence
...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead...
for a Swedish-Iranian dissident for "terrorism" over two years since his disappearance at an airport in Turkey, the judiciary’s Mizan Online website reported.

Habib Chaab has been held in Iran since October 2020 after he vanished during a visit to Turkey and was put on trial in Tehran — which does not recognize dual nationality.

Chaab, who was found guilty on charges of "corruption on earth" and the formation of a rebel group, was sentenced to death on December 6.

On Sunday, it was confirmed that Iran’s Supreme Court
...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations...
had upheld the ruling.

"The death sentence of Habib Farajollah Chaab on charges of corruption on earth through the formation, management and leadership of a rebel group called Harakat al-Nidal,
...he is in our archives as a member of ASMLA (Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahvaz), a Sunni Arab group who’re tired of being ruled by Shiite Persians, so they’ve been getting feisty...
and the design and execution of numerous terrorist operations in Khuzestan province, was approved by the Supreme Court," Mizan Online reported.

Iran has accused Harakat al-Nidal of "cooperation with other terrorist groups" including in a 2018 attack on a military parade in Ahvaz in the southwestern Khuzestan region that authorities said killed 25 and maimed almost 250.

Chaab is the latest person to be sentenced to death after being found guilty for being members of Harakat al-Nidal, which Tehran calls a "terrorist group."

Last week, a court in Ahvaz sentenced to death six men over attacks who had "carried out the orders of their European leaders."

They were found guilty of "armed operations" between 2017 and 2019 that killed four people, including a soldier and two members of Iran’s Basij paramilitary force, the report said.

The Islamic Theocratic Republic of Iran executes more people every year than any other nation except China, according to rights groups including Amnesia Amnesty International.

Last month, Iran’s judiciary put to death a Kurdish murderous Moslem who had been convicted of killing a police officer, a move condemned by rights groups who called him a political prisoner.
