The youths could be sentenced to three years' jail.
In Kerman local police announced the imminent execution of 12 "hoodlums" arrested with another 186 people during the last four months.

A young Iranian who was searching for his lost dog in a Tehran neighborhood has been arrested and ordered to stand trial for 'moral corruption'.
According to the daily Etemad Melli, the young man was caught while putting up a notice in which he was promising a reward to anyone who found his dog.
A Tehran police spokesman, Mehdi Ahmadi said that looking for a lost dog indicates the spread of a corrupt culture, which indirectly popularises keeping a dog at home, something that is completely foreign to the culture and Isamic tradition.
In arresting this young man, we wanted to send a very clear message to our young people, you need to steer away from the corrupt culture imported from the west.
