Farzaneh (Razieh) Moradi, a 26 year old woman convicted of murdering her husband six years earlier, was hanged in the prison of Isfahan, Iran. Farzaneh was married to her husband Ahmad at the age of 15, and became a mother of a girl when she was only 16. She had not seen her daughter since she was arrested.
At the beginning Farzaneh confessed but later she said that it was another man identified as Saeed who had committed the murder. Saeed would have promised Farzaneh that they would live together, and told her that if she accepted the responsibility for the murder she would not be executed since she is mother of a little child. However, the court didn’t accept the new explanation and sentenced her to death.
