An Iranian court has sentenced a teenage rape victim to death by hanging after she weepingly confessed that she had unintentionally killed a man who had tried to rape both her and her niece.

The state-run daily Etemaad reported on Saturday that 18-year-old Nazanin confessed to stabbing one of three men who had attacked the pair along with their boyfriends while they were spending some time in a park west of the Iranian capital in March 2005.

Nazanin, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, said that after the three men started to throw stones at them, the two girls’ boyfriends quickly escaped on their motorbikes leaving the pair helpless.

She described how the three men pushed her and her 16-year-old niece Somayeh onto the ground and tried to rape them, and said that she took out a knife from her pocket and stabbed one of the men in the hand.

As the girls tried to escape, the men once again attacked them, and at this point, Nazanin said, she stabbed one of the men in the chest. The teenage girl, however, broke down in tears in court as she explained that she had no intention of killing the man but was merely defending herself and her younger niece from rape, the report said.

The court, however, issued on Tuesday a sentence for Nazanin to be hanged to death.

Last week, a court in the city of Rasht, northern Iran, sentenced Delara Darabi to death by hanging charged with murder when she was 17 years old. Darabi has denied the charges.

In August 2004, Iran’s Islamic penal system sentenced a 16-year-old girl, Atefeh Rajabi, to death after a sham trial, in which she was accused of committing “acts incompatible with chastity”.

The teenage victim had no access to a lawyer at any stage and efforts by her family to retain one were to no avail. Atefeh personally defended herself and told the religious judge that he should punish those who force women into adultery, not the victims. She was eventually hanged in public in the northern town of Neka

That’s totally wrong! Women in Iran have less rights then your cat. Your cat would not be hung if it were raped! The Iranian court system views rape as the woman’s fault. Dressed in black from head to toe, with only their eyes showing, if they are raped they were asking for it by being provocative.

They're Persian, which is supposedly different from Arab. I can't tell the difference by looking though. A guy at my work is from Iran, and he says that arabs are darker and have curly hair, but I've seen plenty of light-skinned arabs with straight hair. Maybe the difference is purely cultural, but I can't tell the difference.

For the same reason the moonbats went ballistic over the panties-on-the-head "abuse" of MoslemMaggot terrorists while silently condoning the decapitation of dozens of Western civilians.

The warped answer they give is simply this:

"When it's America doing bad things, the American people should be far more outraged."

Correct. The vast majority are aryan, or white. The first white people probably. They are also Persians since Iran is what used to be Persia.

Treating a pet badly is a punishable crime in most western countries, unfortunately in these radical Muslim countries women have less rights than your cat.

Seriously, working for a major university, I get to see and talk to a lot of foreign students, many from the Middle East (including several from Iran). Most students that I come into contact with from those types of countries think they're shitholes, too, and couldn't wait to escape to "The Great Satan."
