Zivilisierte Staaten sollten keine Beziehungen zu Staaten haben, deren Gesetze nach ihrem Rechtsverständnis menschenrechtswidrige Handlungen (wie grausame Todesarten als Strafe, rassistische oder sexistische Gesetze usw.) vorschreiben. Auch Folter und Verstümmelungen wie Klitorisbeschneidungen sollten dazu führen. Religiöse Gebote dürfen nicht zu Menschenrechtsverletzungen führen. Die Behandlung von Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani ist ein schulmässiges Beispiel für solche verbrecherischen Gesetze im Iran. Regierungen, Parteien, NGO's und andere Institutionen sollten entsprechende Maßnahmen ergreifen.

Do you know how it is with Sakineh today? ? I'm from a Dutch group of amnesty international fighting for the release of Sakineh?

    Write to Iranian regime, or Iranian embassy and demand her release. She is alive today because of pressure but she must be freed! Thanks

      I did, though it feels like a pretty useless action. Thank you and Mina Ahadi for not letting us forget about Sakineh.
