Alleged imposition of the death penalty on an individual for drugs offence.
According to the information received, in June 2012, Mr Saeed Sedeghi was
sentenced to death for his participation in the purchase and possession of 512
kilograms of methamphetamine. In July 2012 Mr. Sedeghi was brought before
Branch 10 of Tehran‘s Revolutionary Court, where he was reportedly
required to sign a document, apparently informing him that his death sentence
was going to be implemented. Moreover, Mr. Sedeghi had previously made
an application to the Amnesty and Clemency Commission and he was never
formally told of the outcome of this communication. On 1 August 2012, he
was transferred from Soroush 111, also known as Tehran‘s Kahrizak
detention centre, to Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj. It is reported that he could
be executed at any time in this centre. Mr. Saeed was the subject of a previous
communication (see above, IRN 15/2012).
