Iran is executing a 15-year-old child in complete secrecy.

What Iran has done is one of the biggest betrayals it has committed against the laws, as it has infringed the rights of the child in a hideous way and executed a child who thought he would say goodbye to his family, and they only contacted them to receive the body.

Iranian authorities have secretly executed a young man who was a child at the time of his arrest and had spent nearly a decade on death row, Amnesty International has learned. Sajad Sanjari was hanged in Dizelabad prison in Kermanshah province at dawn on 2 August, but his family were not told until a prison official asked them to collect his body later that day.  

In August 2010, police arrested Sajad Sanjari, who was then 15, over the fatal stabbing of a man. Sajad Sanjari said the man had tried to rape him and claimed he had acted in self-defence, but in 2012 he was convicted of murder and sentenced to death.
