Death Penalty vs. Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Violating Global Human Rights Commitments
Iran signed the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Article 6 allows death only for serious crimes with fair trials. However, Iran flouts this. Trials lack transparency. Accused face restrictions. Courts lose independence. Therefore, sentences appear tainted. Many involve drugs or dissent. Activists condemn rushed judgments. They document breaches tirelessly.
