the Iranian state-controlled media reported that three prisoners were hanged. Two youth named Navab Davoodi, 19, and Mehdi Yazdani, 20, from Yazdanshahr were hanged in public at Vila Shahr intersection in the City of Nadjaf Abad, central Iran. They suffered much torture in prison. One of Navab Davoodi's inmates said Navab was hanged by his arms so long that they did not function anymore. Official sources reported that the two executed were part of a band named "Evil". “Such false denominations are often used by the Islamic regime in order to tarnish the impact of freedom fighter elements and groups in the eyes of Iranians and the world's public opinion,” stated SMCCDI.
