Iran: punishment

In the prison of the city of Hamedan were July 22 juli the hands of five persons amputated.
Fars newsagency reported that all five persons were convicted for robbery.
The local judiciary official said that average age of the five thieves on whom the hand amputation verdict was carried out was over 25 and they had committed major thefts. He added that normally the amputations are supposed to take place in public, but since "the enemies of islam" take advantage of this kind of punishments to present islam as a violator of the humanrights, amputations are not carried out in public.
