This is another Iranian woman who is about to be executed soon. Every morning I write about someone Iran has just executed; within minutes, a message arrives from a mother, a sister, a friend, begging me to write about their loved one on death row. Before it's too late. That's why I want to write before this young woman's execution, not after. Arghavan Fallahi. 24 years old. Evin Prison. Sentenced to death. Judge Salavati, one of Iran's most notorious executioner judges, sentenced her on the charge of "Baghi," armed rebellion. For months in solitary confinement, she was subjected to severe psychological torture and pressure to extract forced confessions. But she refused. So they sentenced her to death anyway. Fellow female prisoners who were with Arghavan inside Evin say her situation is urgent. The torture has left her with severe psychological trauma and physical illness. She's not only facing the death sentence, she's suffering right now, inside that cell. But she's still alive and there's still time to save her life. Please, join me and help us Iranians say her name now and demand that the international community and world leaders pressure that republic to halt her execution and those of other political prisoners. #StopExecutionsInIran

Zeinab went into the street to protest. To demand freedom. For that, the authority charged her with “Moharebeh”, which means; enmity against God, means execution. If you ask me how you can help me and help Iranians save her life, to be honest, I don’t have an answer. 💔I don’t have power. All I have is my voice, and the ability to tell their stories. Because I was once a prisoner myself. And what I feared most was being forgotten, being left alone behind those walls, while the government erased my name and killed me in silence. That is why I keep telling their stories. So they cannot be erased. So they are not alone. I'm writing this for everyone in the free world who has ever joined a protest in your country: this is what they do to people like Zeinab Mousavi. They don't just arrest you. They put a death sentence on the act of showing up, in order to create fear and to prevent people from protesting against oppression. Zeinab Mousavi is in Vakilabad Prison in Madhhad right now, having seizures every night, being denied medical care, while her family waits in terror. A freed prisoner named Sepideh Qolian tried to tell her story to every major newspaper inside Iran. But every single one refused. Because Iran's system is built to make people disappear quietly, arrest them, break them, silence the witnesses, and wait for the world to move on. Execution is no one's right. Not Zeinab's. Not anyone's who ever stepped into a street and said: this is wrong.

Before her execution, she recorded a message for her mother: "I want the world to know what is being done to me." Reyhaneh Jabbari was 19 when a former intelligence officer tried to sexually assault her. She fought back. He died. She spent seven years in Evin Prison. The world signed petitions. Iran sharpened the rope. She was 26. Iran hanged her anyway. Rs Under Sharia law in Iran, to prove rape, a woman must produce four male witnesses to the act itself. Four. Male. Witnesses. If she cannot, her accusation becomes a confession. She is no longer the victim. She is the criminal and faces flogging. Or prison. Or death. This is not ancient history. This is the law that is still on the books today. The law that Abdul El-Sayed is asking Americans not to fear. Women in Iran don't have a #MeToo movement. They have a noose.

Islamic Republic in Iran hangs 24-Year-old woman who defended herself from sexual assault Yesterday the regime executed Marziyeh Neyri yesterday, a young woman who was forced into marriage at age 17 and hanged for fighting back against her attacker. Marziyeh was 18 years old when her husband's associate attempted to sexually assault her in her own home, in front of her husband. She grabbed a kitchen knife to defend herself. Her husband died in the struggle. She told the court she had been repeatedly assaulted by her husband's associates before that day. Iran's courts didn't care. The regime rejected her self-defense claim. Her attacker, who survived, took the stand and called her a murderer. The court believed him over her. She was sentenced to death. No clemency. No mercy. The sentence was carried out at Chubindar Prison in Qazvin. Marziyeh Neyri never had a chance. Forced into marriage as a child under Iran's Islamic laws, she spent the few years of her adult life in a courtroom, fighting for her life after defending it. She lost. This is the Sharia Laws in Islamic Republic of Iran where a woman can be hanged for surviving. 💔

AlinejadMasih's tweet photo. Islamic Republic in Iran hangs 24-Year-old woman who defended herself from sexual assault

Yesterday the regime executed Marziyeh Neyri yesterday, a young woman who was forced into marriage at age 17 and hanged for fighting back against her attacker.

Marziyeh was 18 years old when her husband's associate attempted to sexually assault her in her own home, in front of her husband. She grabbed a kitchen knife to defend herself. Her husband died in the struggle.

She told the court she had been repeatedly assaulted by her husband's associates before that day. Iran's courts didn't care.

The regime rejected her self-defense claim. Her attacker, who survived, took the stand and called her a murderer. The court believed him over her.

She was sentenced to death.

No clemency. No mercy. The sentence was carried out at Chubindar Prison in Qazvin.

Marziyeh Neyri never had a chance. Forced into marriage as a child under Iran's Islamic laws, she spent the few years of her adult life in a courtroom, fighting for her life after defending it.

She lost.

This is the Sharia Laws in Islamic Republic of Iran where a woman can be hanged for surviving.

A woman waiting at bus stop in northern Iran. Her crime? Wearing shorts. A hijabi woman attacks her. Police arrive and force her to put on pants in the street. They cannot keep the hijab on Iranian women's heads. Now they're coming for their legs
