Wonders they say shall never cease as a 27 year old Reyhaney Jabbari, was condemned by hanging in Iran today 25th October, 7 years after she killed a man that she
claimed had attempted to rape her. Reyhaney was sentenced to death in
2009 for the stabbing death of Morteza Abdolali Sarbandi, a former intelligence officer.
A court ruled that she killed Morteza on purpose because she had bought
the knife two days before she stabbed him in the back with it. In her
defence,
Reyhaney said she'd stabbed the man out of self defence.
