Human Rights violations in Iran

Lashings and executions seem to be commonplace in Iran which is grossly violating human rights in the name of enforcement of strict morality laws laid down by the Koran. According to Human Rights organisation,respect for basic human rights in Iran, especially freedom of expression and assembly, deteriorated in 2006 and it holds the deplorable distinction of leading the world in juvenile executions.



But there is hope as yet. It is learnt that resistance amongst the people of Iran against the hard line religious regime is gaining momentum.
