Yasser Daryayi-Narouyi executed in Sabzevar Prison on April 7.
According to the Baluch Activists Campaign, Zahedan native, Yasser Daryayi-Narouyi was executed in Sabzevar Prison in the early hours of April 7. The Baluch prisoner had been sentenced to death on drug-related charges. According to the report, Yasser was arrested on charges of carrying drugs a year and a half ago in Bardaskan province and sentenced to death. At the time of writing, Yasser Daryayi-Narouyi’s execution has not been reported by domestic media or officials in Iran. It has been almost four years since an Article was added to the Anti-Narcotics Law in 2017 to limit death sentences specifically and provide a general degree of reprieve in some cases. However, while the numbers reduced that year, the death penalty is still being used in drug-related cases.
