Iran Human Rights, June 9: Two prisoners were hanged in Zahedan prison this morning.

According to the official site of the Iranian judiciary in the Baluchestan Province (southeastern Iran), two prisoners identified as Mohammad Mohammad-Hassani Lotak and Saeed Baluch Shahbakhsh were hanged in Zahedan prison (in the capital of the Baluchestan province) this morning.

The prisoners were charged with Moharebeh (waging war against God) through armed kidnapping, creating fear among the society, and harbouring large quantities of narcotic drugs and illegal arms, said the report. Iran Human Rights (IHR) cannot confirm the charges.

Moharebeh is a charge widely used against opponents of the Iranian authorities.
