At least 300 people sit in the Islamic regime’s dungeons waiting to be executed

Iran Press News: At least 300 people are presently sitting in the Islamic regime’s dungeons waiting to be executed. Alladin Boroujerdi, the chairman of the security council of the Islamic parliament during a speech in the city of Ghom said: "In our recent visit to some prisons, we became aware of at least 300 people who were waiting to be executed; two years after the issuance of the verdict some of these individuals have not yet been executed. These people were arrested and detained in connection with drug trafficking and sentenced to death."

The chairman of the security council of the Islamic parliament called for the swift execution of these individuals and said: "Those involved in drug smuggling must be dealt with as severely as possibl."

This is while according to many experts in Iran, authorities of the Islamic regime themselves are in charge of widespread drug smuggling in and out of the country, since the existence of a high volume of various kinds of drugs, as well as buying and selling in Iran is quite impossible without the cooperation of the regime’s forces and trafficking networks.
