Iran: Man Executed for Running Over Police Officers with His Car - Sarmad

Iranian authorities carried out the death sentence of a man convicted of running over several police officers with his car during the widespread protests that swept the country in January, according to Mizan, the media outlet of the Iranian judiciary.

Executions in Iran have increased since the outbreak of war with the United States and Israel on February 28, with most of those executed having been convicted in connection with their participation in the protests that took place in the country weeks earlier.
