Save Sakineh! Posted on 08/07/201029/04/2021 By Reedz Excerpt of a letter from the son of a woman who was stoned to death nearly 30 years ago: Have you ever held a bloody tool in your hands with which they have murdered your mother? Have you ever touched the bloody skin and hair of your mother who has just been killed in a deep hole? Have you ever followed the line of your mother’s blood in order to find her corpse thrown at the back of a truck? Have you ever seen the fresh grave of that dearest being with a small piece of paper on which they have written her name wrapped around a small branch of tree? Has anyone ever said a word about the children of the people who have been stoned to death? … I never forget the last words of my mother’s Islamic judge: “I issued a verdict for stoning this woman to death so that other individuals learn a lesson from her doomed fate and to avoid sins of such nature. To execute by shooting would not have made her suffer enough!” Sakineh’s case has drawn international appeals for a stay of execution [AFP Dear Friends, Yesterday an Iranian woman, Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, was saved by global protests from being stoned to death. But she may still be hanged — and, meanwhile, execution by stoning continues. Right now fifteen more people are on death row awaiting stoning in which victims are buried up to their necks in the ground and then large rocks are thrown at their heads. The partial reprieve of Sakineh, triggered by the call from her children for international pressure to save her life, has shown that if enough of us come together and voice our horror, we may be able to save her life, and stop stoning once and for all. Sign the urgent petition now and send it onto everyone you know — let’s end this cruel slaughter NOW! http://www.avaaz.org/en/stop_stoning/?vl Sakineh was convicted of adultery, like all the other 12 women and one of the men awaiting stoning. But her children and lawyer say she is innocent and that she did not get a fair trial — they state her confession was forced from her and, speaking only Azerbaijani, she did not understand what was being asked of her in court. Despite Iran’s signing of a UN convention that requires the death penalty only be used for the “most serious crimes” and despite the Iranian Parliament passing a law banning stoning last year, stoning for adultery continues. Sakineh’s lawyer says the Iranian government “is afraid of Iranian public reaction and international attention” to the stoning cases. And after Turkey and Britain’s Foreign Ministers spoke out against Sakineh’s sentence, it was suspended. Sakineh’s brave children are leading the international campaign to save their mother and stop stoning. Massive international condemnation now could finally stop this sickening punishment. Let’s join together today across the world to end this brutality.

Bukan keluarga mangsa hukuman Tapi Keluaraga yg jd MANGSA si Sakineh p/s: Im dont know yet 'Naked Truth'
Asalamu’alaikum wrt wbh saudara Amir, Nobidy will knows the naked truth unless you go to Iran and find out yourself. Yang amba tedapat dari Al-Jazeera, wallahualam bi shawab Amnesty International, one of several groups publicising her case, said last week that Mohammadi Ashtiani, who has two children, was convicted in 2006 of having an “illicit relationship” with two men and received 99 lashes as punishment. The group said that despite that sentence she was subsequently convicted of “adultery while being married” and was sentenced to death by stoning.
