Iran: After brutal suppression of women & Labor, IRI Turns to Torturing Homosexuals


IRQO (IRanian Queer Organization) reports that 80 young men who were arrested at a party are under severe torture and pressure by Iranian authorities while they have not been officially charged yet.
Homosexuality is punishable by death under the Islamic Republic law, this was apparent in the case of Iranian teenagers Mahmoud Asgari and Ayaz Marhoni (pictured) who believed they have done nothing wrong when they were caught together. Further information can be found on the IRQO website.
