Having read the article, he was suffering from bipolar disorder, but apparently he did deliberately run over 6 people with a car, killing one of them
In modern countries he’d be jailed for life, but let’s face it, there are still a few countries around the world that are stuck in tha dark ages and the death penalty still stands
In a modern country he should get the help and support he needs, hopefully enough to live a normal life, and if not then he should be kept in a mental health facility where he can be comfortable but not a threat to himself or others
True, rehabilitation is the modern way. Cruel capital punishment is so medieval
Imagine if it was done for profit, that’d be the worst thing imaginable!!
Just a reminder that for profit prisons only house 8% of US inmates.
The problem is the prison contracts for public prisons.
Just a reminder that 8% of US inmates is 8% of a quarter of all the inmates on the planet
No doubt that the US has major issues with prison populations, but there seems to be this idea that most US prisons are privately owned, which isn’t true.
Note the word should
The death penalty should be abolished
You have been permanently banned from c/Iran.
And nothing of value was lost.
Seems like Iran would rather kill disabled people than give women the most basic autonomy. They just want to have the right to cover their hair or not. This is absurdity.
(Edit grammar)
Then is not than
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mohammad Ghobadlou was executed early on Tuesday on charges of killing a local official and injuring five others after he ran them over in his car during a rally in the town of Parand near the capital of Tehran.
“If Mizan news agency is telling the truth, it should announce the number and date of issuance of this verdict,” Mr Raesian said in a statement on X.
Amnesty said Ghobadlou had been under the care of a psychiatric hospital for bipolar disorder since the age of 15. International law and standards explicitly discourage the use of the death penalty in cases involving individuals with mental disabilities, according to the rights group.
Unrest gripped Iran in 2022 following months-long anti-government protest after Mahsa Amini, 22, died after being detained by the morality police for not wearing the mandatory Islamic veil, or hijab, properly.
Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, director of the group, said “the Islamic Republic’s leader Ali Khamenei and his Judiciary must be held accountable for this crime.
In October, Iranian teenager Armita Geravand, 16, died in hospital after she fell into a coma after an alleged altercation with the country’s morality police on a Tehran metro train.
The original article contains 598 words, the summary contains 191 words. Saved 68%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
what Century is it in that place? is it actually the 12th Century AD in Iran, and there are Crusader knights riding around and shit?
How can you kill someone with a mental health condition? I mean at worst he kills himself, but you didn’t kill him directly
That’s a pretty fucked up thing to say. I’d say I hope you’re joking, but I don’t think that makes it any better.
Are you confused about the details of the story? Dude ran over 6 people and was executed for it.
