Atefeh Rajabi Sahaaleh, age 16, Publicly Hanged Till Death by lsIamic regime in Iran For Being Raped.

She was punished by lsIamic sharia for being raped!

Atefeh Rajabi Sahaaleh  September 21, 1987 – August 15, 2004) was an Iranian girl from the town of Neka who was executed a week after being sentenced to death by Haji Rezai, head of Neka's court, on charges of adultery and crimes against chastity.


Atefeh was convicted for crimes against chastity after being raped repeatedly by Ali Darabi, an 51-year-old ex-revolutionary guard turned taxi driver. Darabi was a married man with children at the time.[1]

Atefeh had been raped by Darabi over a period of 3 years without her family being aware.[2] While in prison, she was further allegedly tortured and raped by prison guards. She told her grandmother that she could only walk on all fours because of the pain.[3] The judge in her case was Haji Rezai. When Atefah realized that she was losing her case, she removed her hijab, an act seen as a severe contempt of the court, and argued that Ali Darabi should be punished, not her. She even removed her shoes and threw them at the judge.[4] Rezai later sentenced her to death.
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

She was publicly hanged from a crane in Neka on August 15, 2004. Amnesty International and other organizations declared her execution to be a crime against humanity and against children of the world.
