Revised Sample Letter for Sakineh Ashtiani in Light of Calls for Her Immediate Execution by Hanging

The Western Azerbaijan prosecutor has called for Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani to be immediately executed by hanging. Please find below a revised sample letter and extended list of government and media contacts. We have pushed them back thus far; were it not for our global response, she would have already been stoned to death. KEEP PUSHING. DEMAND IMMEDIATE DIPLOMATIC RESPONSE.

Sample letter:

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to you with an urgent request that you intervene with the authorities in the Islamic Republic of Iran, who are preparing to execute Ms. Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani for the alleged act of adultery, a non-crime.

By stoning or by hanging, it is wrong to execute her. And by standing for Sakineh, I stand for all those threatened by the Islamic Republic’s barbaric use of execution as its primary method of repressing and terrorizing the population in order to stay in power.

Diplomatic sanctions, including travel bans, freezing of bank accounts, and expulsion from international organizations such as the UN – especially the UN Commission on the Status of Women – must be used to force the Islamic Republic to comply with international law and standards of human rights.

Sincerely,
[your name]
