Yet a story about another 14 year old boy

the boy was apparently demonstrating… hopefully for human rights, however, he was arrested, flogged and imprisoned.

On the bright side… well, if there is one to a child getting flogged amd tortured… At least the kid got to keep his head and did not get a glimpse of that axe to the right.

December 09. 2006 - According to reports from the Organization of Defense of Human Rights in Iranian Kurdistan, the recent series of arrests in the township of Mahabad continues. 14-year-old Shahou Hasanpour and his brother Houshiar are two of the most recent detainees. They were arrested and charged with taking part in the summer 2005 series of demonstrations in Mahabad.

Neither one of the brothers had the benefit of being represented by a lawyer in court. Houshiar was sentenced to 4 months in prison and 50 lashes. .
