Iran’s authorities are preparing to execute 22-year-old protester #MahanSadratMadani just a month after a grossly unfair trial before a Revolutionary Court in Tehran on 3 Nov. He was moved to Rajai Shahr prison in Karaj today, sparking concerns that his execution is imminent. His death sentence is over accusations of using a knife to attack an individual, setting on fire a motorcycle; damaging a mobile phone, which the court ruled constitutes “Waging war against God.” He repeatedly denied in court accusations of attacking someone with a knife. Update: Per Mahan’s Lawyer and his political sponsor, Iran’s supreme court accepted his appeal against the death penalty. (as per Stop Executions source)
