Stoning to be omitted from Iran penal laws

TEHRAN (AFP)–Iran’s parliament plans to scrap stoning and amputation of a hand as punishments in a revised version of the Islamic penal code, the official IRNA news agency reported Monday.

“Parliaments judicial commission decided not to put some Islamic punishments including stoning in the (revised) law in line with the interests of the country,” commission head Ali Shahrokhi told the agency.

He said the commission is also proposing the abolition of amputation and has considered the idea of a “special court for minors under 18.”

Once the commission has finalised the new version of the penal code, parliament will vote on whether to implement the revised law for a trial period.

Afterwards it will be discussed for final approval by the vetting legislative body, the Guardians Council. Source

I’d decided to write an article on stoning and i had even gathered enough data to show how much this punishment is not islamic and not possible to be practiced. Now after i read this news, am happy. They promised for more progress in Iran’s penal laws. Changes will come, regardless of whom on power.

Good news among all the miseries that western media feels completely ‘devoted’ to present the world about my country..

Q&A: Tweeting from Tehran

By Kathleen McCaul

Online social networking has played a big role throughout the Iranian elections.

The oppostion used it to organise their campaign, then to get out the vote, and eventually to plan the enormous protests that followed the counting of the votes.

But not all those who are part of the information uprising in Iran are against the government.

Al Jazeera English spoke to one pro-government user of Twitter, the social networking website, who is known in the Iranian blogosphere by the nickname Shahrazad.
