This is really heartbreaking...
The official IRNA news agency says Reyhaneh Jabbari was hanged
at dawn Saturday for premeditated murder. It quoted the court
ruling as rejecting the claim of attempted rape and saying all
evidence proved that Jabbari had plotted to kill Morteza Abdolali
Sarbandi, a former intelligence agent.
The court ruling says Jabbari, 27, stabbed Sarbandi in the back in
2007 after purchasing a knife two days earlier.
The execution was carried out after Sarbandi's family refused to
pardon Jabbari or accept blood money.
The date of her execution has been repeatedly delayed but Jabbari's
mother Shole Pakravan received a phone call on Friday telling her
to visit her daughter in prison for the last time as she would be
hanged on Saturday.
Amnesty International issued a failed last-ditch plea to the
government to spare her life.
