Sonra m\u0131 ?<\/p>\n

\u0130mzasiz bir sikayet \u00fczerine yeniden tutuklaniyor Atefah iskence ile sorgulaniyor, sorgulayici, hakim ve savci ayni kisi bu arada, tamamen \u0130slami us\u00fcl sorgu sirasinda tecav\u00fcze ugradigini “itiraf” ediyor. Bunun uzerine, 16 yasinda, idama mahkum ediliyor .Atefah. 2 g\u00fcn icinde y\u00fcksek mahkemeden izin aliniyor ve halka ibret olmasi icin kendi sehrinin, tanidigi insanlarin oldugu sehrin meydaninda idam edilmesine karar veriliyor.<\/p>\n

Ailesini son kez g\u00f6rmesine bile izin verilmiyor, acelesi var c\u00fcnk\u00fc m\u00fcsl\u00fcmanlar\u0131n. Acilen \u00f6ld\u00fcr\u00fclmesi gerek bu iffetsiz kizin ve \u00f6ld\u00fcr\u00fcyorlar da, 40 dakika boyunca asiyorlar Atefah’yi, m\u00fcsl\u00fcman tanidiklarinin alkislari ile birlikte.<\/p>\n

Bir sehrin daha iffeti kurtuluyor.<\/p>\n

Sonra 22 yasinda oldugu iddia edilen Atefah’nin 16 yasinda oldugu anlasiliyor,cesedi caliniyor ertesi g\u00fcn, mezarindan, b\u00fcy\u00fck ihtimalle ahlakli m\u00fcsl\u00fcmanlar (!) tarafindan…<\/p>\n

Tecav\u00fczc\u00fcler ise serbest, kirba\u00e7la atlatiyorlar , tam da islam’a yakisir sekilde, iffetlice.<\/p>\n

T\u00fcrkiye’de de iffetli m\u00fcsl\u00fcmanlar\u0131m\u0131z kara carsafla Nisantasi’nda y\u00fcr\u00fcyememekten dem vuruyorlar.<\/p>\n

Kafalarini d\u00fcnyaya kapadiklari bas\u00f6rtus\u00fcyle, amaci insanin kafasini acmak olan \u00dcniversitelere girememeyi elestiriyorlar,ama\u00e7lar\u0131 imam yetistirmek olan imam hatiplerden mezun olup, amaci bilim insan\u0131 \u00fcretmek olan \u00dcniversitelere girememeyi anlamsiz buluyorlar.<\/p>\n

M\u00fcsl\u00fcmanca ya\u015fanacak bir \u00fclke \u00f6zlemi i\u00e7inde olanlar, bilin ki karsinizda her zaman sizden daha fazla sayida, sizin pisliklerinize karsi koyacak bir kitle olacak, kendi pisliginiz icinde bogulmaniz dilegiyle…<\/p>\n

Atefeh Rajabi Sahaaleh<\/b>\u00a0(Persian:\u00a0\u0639\u0627\u0637\u0641\u0647 \u0631\u062c\u0628\u06cc \u0633\u0647\u0627\u0644\u0647\u200e; \u2013 1988 \u2013 August 15, 2004) was a 16-year-old\u00a0Iranian\u00a0girl from the town of\u00a0Neka, Iran who wasexecuted\u00a0a week after being\u00a0sentenced to death\u00a0by\u00a0Haji Rezai, head of Neka’s\u00a0court\u00a0on charges of\u00a0adultery\u00a0and “crimes against chastity.”<\/p>\n

After the execution of Atefeh, Iranian media reported that Judge Rezai and several militia members, including Captain Zabihi and Captain Molai, were arrested by the Intelligence Ministry. The execution is controversial because as a signatory of the\u00a0International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Iran promised not to execute anyone under the age of 18. Atefah’s father had passed her birth certificate to the civil authorities, lawyers involved, journalists and Judge Rezai. Pursuant to continual complaints filed by Atefeh’s family, and heavy international pressure about her execution and the way the judge mishandled the case, the\u00a0Supreme Court of Iran\u00a0issued an order to free Atefeh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    [edit]Early life<\/h2>\n

    Atefeh’s mother died in a car accident when she was five. Shortly after, her younger brother is said to have drowned in a river. Her father became a drug addict, and she was forced to care for her octogenarian grandparents. Despite her attending to their needs they are reported to have completely ignored her. She grew up in the town of\u00a0Neka, Iran and was described as a ‘lively and intelligent girl,’ whom everyone knew, and was often seen wandering free on the streets. She was called “gypsy of Neka” by the locals, as she was not restrained in her behavior.<\/p>\n

    It is said that she was arrested five times by the time she was 16 and convicted each time for sex outside marriage and given 100 lashes.<\/p>\n

    [edit]Final arrest<\/h2>\n

    She was convicted for \u2018crimes against chastity\u2019, based on her admission, obtained through torture, that she repeatedly had sex with a 51-year-old ex-revolutionary guard turned taxi-driver Ali Darabi, a married man with children.[1]<\/sup>\u00a0She kept the relationship,[2]<\/sup>\u00a0which lasted over three years, a secret from both her family and the authorities. However, while in prison, she finally told her grandmother, saying that afterwards she could only walk on all fours because of the pain.[3]<\/sup>\u00a0In the court the judge was\u00a0Haji Rezai. As Atefah realised she was losing her case, she removed her\u00a0hijab, an act seen as a severe contempt of the court, and argued that Ali Darabi should be punished, not she. She even removed her shoes and hit the judge with them.[4]<\/sup>\u00a0The judge later sentenced her to death.<\/p>\n

    According to the BBC, the documents presented to the Supreme Court of Appeal described her as 22 years old, but her birth certificate and death certificate stated that she was 16. The issue of her age was not brought to proper attention before it was too late.<\/p>\n

    Amnesty International\u00a0and other organisations claimed that she suffered from psychological illness, both before and at the trial.<\/p>\n

    [edit]Execution<\/h2>\n

    She was publicly\u00a0hanged\u00a0from a\u00a0crane\u00a0in\u00a0Neka, Iran, on August 15, 2004. The judge in her case, Haji Rezai, allegedly also applied the\u00a0noose\u00a0himself.<\/p>\n

    Amnesty International\u00a0and other organizations declared her killing to be a crime against humanity and against children of the world.[5]<\/sup><\/p>\n

    [edit]BBC Undercover \u2013 “Execution of a Teenage Girl”<\/h2>\n

    The case of Atefeh Sahaaleh is the subject of a BBC documentary made by Wild Pictures. Director,\u00a0Monica Garnsey\u00a0and Associate Producer,\u00a0Arash Sahami\u00a0went undercover to document the case.[6]<\/sup>\u00a0It is also the subject of an hour-long\u00a0Discovery Times\u00a0program called “Execution in Iran.”<\/p>\n
