" This is from Sophia D:s news submit yesterday - It depressed me so that after I signed the petition I wanted to help making it known - please, sign the petition http://www.petitiononline.com/Nazanin/ The petition-text clearly states the case - the girl who was attacked faces hanging, not even her being only 17 when this happened seems to save her - the petition is directed to Kofi Annan at the UN and several others. Iran is still far from Equal Rights for Women, if she hadn't defended herself she could have been stoned for having had sex outside marriage - yes, I know: it's so horrifying you won't believe your eyes - but please, do sign the petition - it really can make a difference!
