Iran’s Presidential Election Amid Unrest And Ongoing Human Rights Violations
Less than 48 hours after the bombing, three men were hanged in public near the site of the attack amid claims that they were responsible. Later comments clarified that the three men had been in detention at the time of the bombing, but that they had “confessed” to providing the explosives used in the bombing. Further unrest broke out afterwards with up to ten people killed, and dozens arrested.
