New video footage of a public hanging in Iran this week highlights the brutalisation of both the condemned and those who watch executions, Amnesty International said today.

The video provided to Amnesty was shot on 19 July, and shows the execution by hanging of three men in Azadi Square in the city of Kermanshah.

Emerson's thoughts:

This is part of a continuing rise of the number of executions in Iran. Amnesty learned that the arrest, trials and executions all took less than 2 months, raising serious questions about the fairness of the trials.
