A man identified as "Iraj D" was hanged in public on Monday in Shooshtar, Al-Ahwaz (Khuzestan). The man was charged with murder but no detail of his trial was released. This is the sixth execution in Al-Ahwaz within the space of a week. The Iranian regime does not publicise all the executions it carries out, with most carried out inside prison. The number of state killings is likely to be higher than reported.
