Execution spree’ Iran has previously used detained foreigners as bargaining chips to secure the release of its citizens abroad, the United Nations warned Saturday that an Iranian-Swedish citizen is facing imminent execution in Iran, after a Swedish court upheld the conviction of a former Iranian prison official. In a November report, the Norway-based Iran Human Rights group said the country had executed more than 600 people so far this year, the highest figure in eight years. Amnesty said Friday that Iran had “recently embarked on another alarming executions spree, executing at least 115 people in November 2023 alone”. What is your take on detention and execution overseas, should the criminals be extradited or judged inĀ their motherlands?
