"Madam President, a huge wave of protests and concern is building up with regard to freedoms in Iran.
We want to offer our support to all those democrats who want the word justice to mean something. We strongly condemn the arrest and sentencing of Zahra Bahrami. We strongly condemn the arrest and sentencing to death by stoning of Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani. We demand their discharge and release. We wish to emphasise the need for all Member States to adhere to the values and principles of secularism, to avoid any confusion between the state and religion resulting in an unacceptable and anti-freedom association of crime with sin.
We wish to reaffirm our support for the abolition of the death penalty in every single country, and so we call on Iran’s judicial authorities to introduce a moratorium on capital punishment, to unequivocally prohibit executions for adultery and to abolish the use of torture, in accordance with international law."@en1
