Plea against execution

The release claimed that Iran, ignoring pleas from the international community, had verbally conveyed to two Baha8217;i acirc;euro;ldquo; Sirus Zabhi-Moghaddam and Hedayat Kashefi-Najabadi 8212; that they would be executed shortly.

It said that in July this year one Ruhullah Rohani was executed in Iran on the grounds that he converted a woman to the Baha8217;i faith, even though the woman had declared that she had been born of Baha8217;i parents and had been raised as a Baha8217;i. Two women and 12 children had been arrested in May this year for taking part in a moral education class, it alleged.
