Two teenage cousins were flogged and secretly executed last week by Iranian authorities following their rape conviction, Amnesty International says

Iran secretly executed two teenagers last week, according to rights group Amnesty International, which criticized the country for its"utter disdain for international law and the rights of children."

The 17-year-old cousins, Mehdi Sohrabifar and Amin Sedaghat, were executed on April 25 at a prison in the southern city of Shiraz"following an unfair trial," Amnesty said in a statement on Monday. The teens had been convicted on multiple rape charges.Iran did not immediately respond to CNN's request for comment. Amnesty said the teenagers, who were arrested in 2017 at the age of 15, did not know they had been sentenced to death until"shortly before their executions.

Trump needs to put a cruise missile through the window of Irans Government building, maybe a couple missiles? Or three or four. Wish you'd Do it Mr. President Trump.

Obama’s Iran

Iran is an Islamic terrorist hell hole, and this is horrible. However the use of “children” is misleading. If you read the article, these were two 17 year olds who committed multiple rapes.

Shameful and the USA handed them pallets of cash. Disgusting.

in the US, police kill teenagers on the streets and in playgrounds without trial. I do not remember that this domestic dog Amnesty International was worried about this. In Iran, most likely, nothing of the kind happened, CNN has a task to demonize Iran, and they do it.

Iranians living abroad don't do enough to overturn this idiotic regime.

This is immoral. So is the Saudi public execution of 34 Shia men, including two minors. Two sides of the same coin but we give money and arms to one. Why? For oil? There’s a simple solution for that. Green energy. Then we can be free to condemn Saudi atrocities.

As a Muslim I'll be the first to say.. these countries have to be stopped. Iran && Saudi are horribly corrupt. I wouldn't even be welcome & if I spoke politically it would not be well. There has to be a standard of global morals.

As an Iranian, I tell everyone that the Islamic Republic of Iran is a criminal. Most Iranians want regime change.

The country should be so much strict n unite the people so that no do conspiracies against the govt.

THE 'RIGHTS OF CHILDREN' ARE UNIVERSAL....THAT INCLUDES IN THE U.S!

Horrifying.

What know what the US is doing to Children..check out the Border.

American? Iranian? Jew? Gentile.

And people are outraged we won't give these animals money.

American police execute black citizens with the same callous sense of power, and nothing.

Probably Trump’s fault and not the president who sent them a pallet of cash

And your boy obama did everything he could to prop that regime up. Let that sink in, people. Obama loves Iran.

It’s terrible. But Saudi not only beheaded but crucified citizens and is far worse. Remind us how many Iranian citizens attacked us 9/11?

What about Saudi Arabia? They didn't even do it secretly.

Thats their business..

But Kah-Show-Gee
