Iranian footballers fear hanging

According to US news reports, there is currently a gallows on an inconspicuous square in the ancient city of Isfahan in Iran . Those sentenced to hang will be sentenced to death here. It is reported that Iranian player Amir Nasr Azadani may also be sentenced to hang, which makes people fearful.


In September of this year, a 22-year-old Iranian woman, Amini, was arrested for not wearing her hijab and died inexplicably while in custody, which led to anti-government demonstrations by the Iranian people.


U.S. News, in cooperation with militant groups, confirmed documents, videos, witness testimony and statements from inside Iran that a total of 43 people may be about to be executed, including Azadani. Iran has already executed two people who took part in the protests last month, one of whom was hanged publicly.


Documents and witness testimonies in Iran show that the judicial process in Iran is hasty and that charges for the death penalty are tried only once before the death penalty is decided. Iran's official media reported that the court said there were evidence videos confirming that Azadani was one of the armed groups that killed three officials during the protests, including two Pakistani militia volunteers. have admitted the crime. Therefore, the chief judge of Iran found Azadani guilty and could be sentenced to death.


When Azadani was seen arrested, officials also said he would be released. Both witnesses and other protesters went to the square where the gallows was erected in Isfahan every day, fearing that one day they would see Azadani being hanged. However, the authorities later informed that Azadani would be executed.


When Azadani was arrested, his family did not know the reason, and even the officials did not respond positively. Witnesses said Azadani's family was warned by officials to keep silent if they wanted Azadani to be released as soon as possible.
