Artemis Pebdani Instagram – Today, in Iran, this woman was hanged.
Samira Sabzian was a child bride, compelled into marriage with an older man who inflicted relentless abuse upon her.
Her alleged crime—killing the man who forced her into marriage of torture—and her heinous execution epitomize a government that treats women worse than animals, persistently neglecting to establish legal protections for them.
Without legal safeguards for women and girls in Iran, more will endure domestic and state violence while perpetrators go unpunished.
We @ichri remain committed to seeking justice for Samira and all the girls and women of Iran.
