Activists: 9 Iranians Convicted of Adultery Set to Be Stoned to Death

TEHRAN, Iran  —  Eight women and one man convicted of adultery are set to be stoned to death in Iran, activists said Sunday.

Lawyer and women's rights activist, Shadi Sadr, said the nine were convicted of adultery in separate cases in different Iranian cities.

"Their verdicts are approved, and they may be executed at any time," she told reporters.

Sadr, who has been leading a campaign in Iran against stoning deaths since 2006, said trial protocol was not applied properly in the cases. Six of the nine were convicted based solely on judges' decisions with no witnesses or the presence of their lawyers during their confessions, she said.

Most of the nine come from areas of Iran that have low rates of literacy and some did not understand the cases against them, she said.

One of Sadr's colleagues, Mohammad Mostafai, said his client, Malak Qorbani, had plead guilty to adultery even though she did not know the meaning of the charge.

These are the people that obama-lama-ding-dong wants to go "make nice" with.   :censored: idiot.

The one nice thing about withdrawing our troops from the ME and losing the war on Terrorism, is that under Sharia Law, Rosie O'Donnell will have to get bagged up in a Burhka (If she isn't stoned to death for being homosexual) and Michelle Obama will not only be wearing the burhka, but will have to shut the **** up in public.

the downside is that no-fault divorce gets even easier as all you have to do is point east and say I divorce you three times.  but its only one way and forget all that community property crap.

My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.
