Iran: delay

In Iran Sina Paymard is in fear of imminent execution. He is sentenced to death for a crime he committed when he was 16 years old. Reports say he is transferred to Evinprison to be executed.
Amnesty International started an urgent aktion to halt this execution.
According to his lawyer he was been told that he was scheduled to be executed July 17th.

According to Khaleej Times Online Irans head of judiciary Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi halted the execution for 10 days so a settlement with the victims family (about the Bloodmoney) can be made.
