Iran executed at least 834 people last year, in ‘staggering’ jump, rights groups say

[IsraelTimes] Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
executed a "staggering" total of at least 834 people last year, the highest number since 2015 as capital punishment surged in the Islamic republic, two rights groups say in a new report.
The number of executions, which Iran has carried out by hanging in recent years, was up some 43 percent over 2022.
It marked only the second time in two decades that over 800 executions were recorded in a year, after 972 executions in 2015, Norway-based Iran Human Rights (IHR) and Gay Paree-based Together Against the Death Penalty say in the joint report.
The groups accuse Iran of using the death penalty
 to spread fear throughout society in the wake of the protests sparked by the September 2022 death in police custody of Mahsa Amini that shook the authorities.
"Instilling societal fear is the regime’s only way to hold on to power, and the death penalty is its most important instrument," says IHR director Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam in the report, which describes the figure of 834 as a "staggering total."
Iran has executed nine men in cases linked to attacks on security forces during the 2022 protests —- two in 2022, six in 2023 and one so far in 2024 -— according to the rights groups.
But executions have been stepped up on other charges, notably in drug-related cases, which had until recent years seen a fall.
ECPM director Raphael Chenuil-Hazan says the "lack of reaction" by the United Nations
...where theory meets practice and practice loses...
Office on Drugs and Crime is sending "the wrong signal to the Iranian authorities".
Amiry-Moghaddam expresses concern that a lack of international outrage at the executions, in particular with attention focused on the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...

, was only encouraging the Islamic republic to carry out more hangings.
"The inconsistency in the international community’s reaction to the executions in Iran is unfortunate and sends the wrong signal to the authorities," he says.
