Juvenile offender,  Ebrahim Goodarzvand Chegini is at imminent risk of execution for fatally stabbing his friend at age 17.

Iran Human Rights Activists have reported that Ebrahim was born on June 23rd 1986 and has been in Roudbar prison for the last six years since April 2003. It was reported that he was joking with his friend and in a childish confrontation he stabbed him in the chest which took his life.  His execution was confirmed by the Supreme Court for ghesas (retribution) and his family anticipates that head of Judiciary Ayatollah Shahroudi will approve his execution within the next few days. Iran Human Rights Activists have reported that Ebrahim does not have lawyer while Radio Zamaneh has reported that he only has a state appointed lawyer..

Please  send urgent appeals

- calling on the authorities to commute his death sentence, as he is facing execution for a crime committed when he was under 18 which in accordance with Iran’s obligations as a state party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the Convention on the Rights of the Child, is against international human rights law.
