A newspaper reporter who has been in contact with Makwan’s father told Human Rights Watch that the place of execution of Makwan is now determined by Iranian Authorities and Makwan can be executed anytime.
Makwan was sentenced to death in May by a court ruling on questionable evidence for a crime supposedly committed when he was a 13-year-old child. The court handed down the conviction despite retractions on the part of his accusers during the trial and various apparent violations of Iran’s criminal procedure law.
