Execution of Afsaneh Norouzi delayed, for now
One of the Iran's women MPs has said that she and some other MPs have strongly urged the the supreme court to delay the implementation of the verdict to execute Afsaneh Norouzi until the whole issue is revisited.
Apparently the lower court had accepted Afsaneh's defense argument that what she did was in self-defense, however, supreme court has argued that it was not completly a self-defense.
Whatever the hell they say, there is one thing good here: Her execution is delayed now creating the possibility that it will never take place. You never know, may be calls and letters from those of you who took time and wrote to the Iranian officials have had a huge influence on making this new decision. Please, if you haven't done it yet, take time and do it now, until we make sure a fair trial takes place for Afsaneh that might lead to her freedom and re-uniting with her family.
