Behjat Karimzadeh on Death Row for Murder of Husband




Human Rights Reporters Committee – Behjat Karimzade’s case for retaliation has gone to the stage of asking permission and its likelihood has thus increased.

Behjat, a woman who is detained in Rajayi Shahr prison with the accusation of murdering her husband currently suffers from a bad mental condition.

Two of Behjat daughters and her father-in-law, who is also her uncle, consistently have asked for retaliation (.i.e. her execution) to happen.

Behjat claims that she was raped by her cousin when she was seven and was then forced to marry him.

Behjat was under psychological care while in prison in recent years. She regards her childhood past, he husband’s addiction and his abuse toward her as the reasons and motive for murder.
