Delara Darabi in danger of execution! According to official reports Delara Darabi is to be executed in Iran. The Islamic Republic of Iran is a criminal regime whose officials should be tried at international courts of law. Delara and all political prisoners must be freed now. Capital punishment is murder committed by the state and must be banned. Delara who was only 17 at the time of her arrest, confessed to the murder of her father’s cousin to protect her boyfriend four years ago. There has been enormous evidence to prove her innocence. An international campaign has been in action to protest against the conviction and to save her. Delara’s father has written letters to the international human rights organisations in an attempt to gain support for his daughter and to save her. The Islamic regime has once again upheld the sentence. Organisation for Women’s Liberation strongly condemns this criminal act of the Islamic regime and urges all to respond in support of the campaign to save Delara. We have managed to save the lives of a few women from execution and imprisonment in Iran. Nazanin Fatehi was freed which was the result of such international support. We must continue such efforts to free Delara, Shahla Jahed and Amir Omrallahi. Please sign the online petition. Together we can save Delara and make a difference. http://www.petitiononline.com/DL2222/petition.html More than 32000 signatures have so far been submitted. Add yours to it! Down with Islamic Regime of Iran! Organisation for Women’s Liberation - Iran
