Four men were hanged in the prison of Kerman (southeastern Iran) early this morning, reported the state run news agency Fars.
According to the report, the men were identified as "Morteza Y.", "Akbar J.", "Mehdi B." and "Alireza S." and were all charged with involvement in drug trafficking.
Age of none of those executed was mentioned in the report.
Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, spokesperson of Iran Human Rights, said : "These executions are solely meant to spread fear among the people and have nothing to do with fighting against drug trafficking that has been increasing dramatically in the Iranian society."
