Three stories: 🔴 British-Iranian national executed in Iran 🔴 Woman screamed 'turn back' while being mauled to death in attack by 'multiple dogs' 🔴 Heavy flooding and snow warnings issued across England
Because the reports of Alireza Akbari’s hanging have come from the Mizen News Agency, a state-run outlet closely linked to the Iranian Judiciary, we must assume them to be accurate. The reports don’t say when the execution happened.
Mr Akbari held British-Iranian citizenship, but Tehran doesn't recognise dual-nationals, which made it hard for the British government to get consular access to him whilst he was in prison. His family was reportedly called to the prison on Wednesday for a 'final visit'. Commons Foreign Affairs Committee chair Alicia Kearns had also condemned the planned execution, accusing the regime in Tehran of reacting because it felt"cornered" as a result of international sanctions and anti-government protests.
