Iran rights chief slams EU's stance on terrorist execution verdict

Tehran, IRNA – Secretary of Iran’s High Council for Human Rights has criticized the European Union (EU) for its interventionist statement regarding the death sentence given to Iranian-German terrorist ringleader Jamshid Sharmahd.

"A terrorist Iranian national was supported  in Europe and in the United States," Gharibabadi wrote on his Twitter account on Saturday, adding that Sharmahd has been sentenced to death based on Iranian laws. 

Gharibabadi said that those who oppose the execution of Sharmahd have no regards for rights of the victims of terrorism, adding that instead of condemning the terrorist acts committed by Sharmahd, the EU and the US have decided to defend the terrorist.

"This is the face of the Europe which apparently defends human rights"," he said in Farsi tweet.

In an interventionist statement issued on Friday, the European Union announced that it "strongly condemns" the death sentence imposed on Sharmahd.

In the statement, EU's foreign policy chief Josep Borrell called on Tehran to refrain from executing the death penalty on Sharmahd.
