Iranian woman hanged for killing 'man who tried to rape her'

27 year old Reyhaney Jabbari (pictured above), was executed today October 25th by hanging in Iran 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. The court overruled her claims and sentenced her to death, a ruling which was upheld by Iran's Supreme court.

The execution was carried out today after the victim's family refused to pardon Reyhaney or accept money from her family. Many human rights bodies including Amnesty International had over the years called on Iran's judiciary to halt the execution but they went ahead with it. Her mother confirmed it, saying Reyhaney was hanged in a Tehran prison very early this morning.

  15. i knw they will kill her...dont be suprise ooo because (1) their religion does not recognise women, they always stay at the back even inside the mosque (2) no right for any women (3) i guess she was educated and women has no right for education
    (4) their men can mary as many as posible wives...lol... some rooms for furnication
    so she has no right to protect her self from rapers....

  16. Death sentence sa, I don't know o

  17. I read a detailed article on this case and there it says the reason the her alleged attacker's family refused to pardon her was because she claimed that there was another person in the room when she stabbed her attacker in the back and it was the said person who killed the man, but she refused to name the person in court, thus they refused. It is too bad though!! The fact that it was self defense should have counted

  44. May she RIP. Women are often victims of both the law and crime. Little wonder the laws in developed countries protect them so. I am a feminist, an advocate of the vanguard for better protection of women and children which will kick off soon.

    Wow! I can't believe I just read this and it actually happened. . . A woman killed for killing her rapist? United Nations really need to check some countries' laws and we need activists and organizations rising up for women! This is terrible and unjustifiable.

  73. Why are we hearing about this case only now that she's dead? The media should have highlighted her case when she was still alive and fighting for her life. What good is public outrage to her now?

    ReplyDelete
  74. Woman bought knife to ready herself. Man turned his back and she struck. That's the way it happened. Did he rape her No
    So it's premeditated murder. Period

    ReplyDelete
  75. From the look of thing she's probably guilty and wasn't raped

    ReplyDelete
  76. wicked souls. so, it would have been better if the man had comfortably raped the lady, then what would have happened?

    ReplyDelete
