Devdiscourse – Iran Executes Convicted Spy Amid Controversy
Iran has executed Ehsan Afrashteh, who was convicted of espionage for Israel, following the Supreme Court’s support of his death penalty. The judiciary’s Mizan news outlet reported the execution on Wednesday.
Human rights organization HRANA has raised concerns over the case, noting that Afrashteh’s confessions, which led to his arrest in 2024 and subsequent death sentence in 2025, were allegedly fabricated.
The move has sparked outrage and highlights ongoing concerns regarding the transparency and fairness of judicial processes in the country.
