Mina Ahadi, the head of the International Committee Against Executions, contacted the daughter of the victim in the alleged murder involving Delara Darabi and Amir Hossein. In her phone conversation, Mahin’s daughter stated that she does not believe in the death penalty, however, she does believe that those who were implicated in her mother’s death should be put to justice and serve proper jail time.

The news may possibly serve as an important factor in sparing Delara’s life from death as in the Sharia laws of Iran, the views of the victim’s family are considered in decision making.

Stop Child Execution Camopaign has communicated this information to Delara’s attorney and family.
