Iran denies plans to execute protester after international outcry
Iran has denied sentencing protester Erfan Soltani, 26, to death. Soltani’s case attracted intense international attention after his relatives and rights groups said he would be executed imminently.

“We’ve been told quite firmly, but we’ll find out what it all means. But we’ve been told that the killings in Iran are stopping, and they’re stopping and stopping. And there are no plans for executions, no executions, no executions. So I’ve been told that on good authority. We’ll find out.” “It horrifies me. I’m actually horrified. I think the most horrifying thing about all of this is that the Iranian people know their own enemy. They know the Iranian regime. They knew the cruelty that this regime was going to unleash on them, but they still took to the streets because, like I said, they have nothing to lose.”
