Stop executions of child offenders.
Killed for a crime he allegedly committed - aged 15.
Did you see the news about Behnam Zare? he's the Iranian youth who was hanged.
If you haven't read about it, check this out. http://www.protectthehuman.com/bookmarks/iran-f...
The battle to stop the death penalty is not new- but although we're used to hearing about it, it's vital that we don't foget about it. This news about Behnam has kick-started me back into activa campaigning against it.

I agree totally with the comment made by activista1 but I dony know what the answer is as i suspect they will carry on doing this until they are ousted from power - anyone like to help move them on?
Of all the Amnesty International campaign areas, the situation in Iran with the execution of child offenders is the one that most causes me to feel sick. Urgent actions concerning Iran are so numerous that I almost want to write "Hi, me again...still the same situation". I hope that I won't have to write letters concerning the execution of children in the future.
it's really worrying the all situation in Iran. There is still an action on Amnesty website to stop the executions of child offenders in Iran. Send an email to the Iranian authorities at http://www.amnesty.org.uk/actions_details.asp?A...
