Alleged risk of imminent execution of a woman after a trial that did not meet fair trial
and due process guarantees. According to the information received, on 29 September
2014, authorities transferred Ms. Reyhaneh Jabbari from Gharchak Prison in Tehran to
Raja’i Shahr Prison where she was scheduled to be executed the next morning. Ms.
Jabbari was sentenced to death in 2007 for allegedly killing a member of the Iranian
intelligence services after he attempted to rape her. Raja’i Shahr Prison authorities
reportedly confirmed the scheduled execution to Ms. Jabbari’s mother and asked her to
go to the prison facility on 30 September 2014 to collect the body. However, Ms.
Jabbari’s execution was postponed for 10 days and she was sent back to Gharchak
Prison. Ms. Jabbari was the subject of a previous communication sent to the
Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran on 14 April 2014, see A/HRC/27/72, case
