Sign the Amnesty International appeal to save Saeed Jazee
07-Mar-2008
Please sign the Amnesty International appeal to save Saeed Jazee from execution:
http://www.amnesty.org.uk/actions_details.asp?ActionID=397
Stop the execution of Saeed Jazee
Saeed Jazee was convicted of the murder of a 22-year-old man, which took place in 2003, and sentenced to qesas (retribution). The Supreme
Court upheld his death sentence and his case has been sent for final approval to the Head of the Judiciary, Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi.
Under Article 206 (b) of Iran's Criminal Code, murder is classed as premeditated "in cases where the murderer intentionally makes an action which is inherently lethal, even if [the murderer] does not intend to kill the person."
Additional Information
As a state party to both the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC),Iran has undertaken not to execute child offenders, those convicted of crimes committed when they were under 18. However, since 1990 Iran has executed at least 28 child offenders, six of them in 2007. At least 79 child offenders are now on death row in Iran. This number may be even
higher as at least a further 15 Afghan child offenders have reportedly been sentenced to death.

hiding from public
by David ET on Sat Mar 08, 2008 08:15 PM CSTI just found the same message in my junk mailbox. Iran's leaders keep canceling and changing their email accounts, to avoid email from people.
Looks like Rahbar did that, but then if you click on other one for shahrudi, I guess that works
I received a failure notice!
by Azarin Sadegh on Sat Mar 08, 2008 02:48 AM CSTI sent my emails and voila what I received just a few minutes later:

Giving up on 66.199.242.44...
I will try to send it directly through mu Yahoo mail and not Amnesty site. They might have been blocked.

I just sent my letters to Khameni and Shahrudi,
by Azarin Sadegh on Sat Mar 08, 2008 02:29 AM CSTIt was very easy to make a few changes to the letter and to send it to both Ayatollahs.
Thank you SCE for all your efforts, Thank you Amnesty for always believing in what you're doing!
Azarin
much better!
by IRANdokht on Fri Mar 07, 2008 03:47 PM CSTIt's much easier to sign a letter and click on the chosen recipients from the list.
I hope more people decide to take action and help stop the murder of this young man.
