Iran has intensified its use of public executions and finger amputations, with approximately 250 people subjected to execution annually.Many of these occur publicly, causing slow and painful deaths.

Human rights groups also report an uptick in the use of finger amputation devices.These devices cut off fingers, often in public view.

Iran ranks second in the world for executions, behind China.

However, Iran has a much smaller population.Iran’s legal system allows for the death penalty for various crimes.

These range from murder to non-violent offenses like drinking alcohol.Thieves may face finger amputations, leaving only a thumb and palm.

Methods include electric shocks and flogging, say human rights organizations.The National Council of Resistance of Iran highlights recent increases in executions.

They report at least 30 executions in the past month alone, including three women.Previously, six minors faced execution in 2018 and two teenagers in 2019.

Many confess under torture before execution.Other harsh penalties like stoning for adultery still exist in Iranian law.

Yet, no recent instances of stoning have been reported.A 73-year-old pilot now faces the death penalty for a third offense related to alcohol.Amnesty International emphasizes Iran’s severe judicial practices.

Torture methods include intense electric shocks, described as piercing with millions of needles.BackgroundThis surge in executions and severe punishments in Iran comes amid increasing scrutiny of the country’s human rights record.Iran’s penal code is deeply rooted in Islamic law, often leading to harsh sentences that attract global condemnation.The rise in such extreme judicial actions may be interpreted as a crackdown by the government to suppress dissent and instill fear.A man having his fingers removed in a guillotineCredit: ISNA.It also mirrors a similar uptick in authoritarian measures observed in other countries with repressive regimes.Historically, Iran has been criticized for its human rights abuses, but the recent rise seems to be a worrying escalation.International organizations like Amnesty International and the United Nations have long expressed concern over Iran’s legal practices, particularly the execution of minors, which is in violation of international law.These measures violate individual rights and contradict Iran’s obligations under international human rights treaties to which it is a party.
