According to the Iranian Human Rights Society, there is still a risk of executing Abbas Daris without proving his guilt.
Previously, on December 13, 2024, Abbas Deris, who sentenced to death, sentenced to 14 years in prison by the third branch of the criminal court of a province of Khuzestan. But the Supreme Court has annulled this ruling.
The lawyer had previously stated that the family of the victim had given their consent, but due to the politicization of the case, the execution of the sentence announced by the judiciary.
He also stated that evidence to prove the innocence of Abbas Deris submitted to the court, but they do not accept this evidence based on coerced confessions under torture. The court authorities told the lawyer that this evidence is worthless.
The death sentence is based on forced confessions obtained from Abbas Deris and his brother. The interrogation process from start to finish was under the supervision of the Ministry of Intelligence and the Revolutionary Guards’ Intelligence. Abbas Deris has repeatedly denied the charges in court and stated that the forced confessions were the result of torture by the agents of the Ministry of Intelligence. He had previously said, “I don’t care about being executed because I am sure that I am innocent.”. Nevertheless, there is still the risk of his execution.
