Iranian-Kurdish Law Student’s Execution Stayed

The execution of Habibollah Latifi has been stayed. His sister reports that many demonstrators showed up to protest the execution, “Security forces have threatened the demonstrators [and told them] to disperse, but [this]was not accepted by the people until they were told about the suspension of the sentence by a Sanandaj prison official.” The International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran reports on a meeting between Latifi’s lawyers and the judiciary.
