En iransk domstol har dömt fyra män till 80 piskrapp för att de firat nattvard och druckit vin.
I en färsk FN rapport som behandlar de mänskliga rättigheterna i Iran kan man läsa följande (enligt Jerusalem Post)
Iran metes out 80 lashes to Christians for communion wine drinking
"... In an October UN report on Iran’s human rights record, Dr. Ahmed
Shaheed, UN special rapporteur on human rights in Iran, wrote: “At least
20 Christians were in custody in July 2013. In addition, violations of
the rights of Christians, particularly those belonging to evangelical
Protestant groups, many of whom are converts, who proselytize to and
serve Iranian Christians of Muslim background, continue to be reported.”
His
report further stated, “authorities continue to compel licensed
Protestant churches to restrict Persianspeaking and Muslim-born Iranians
from participating in services, and raids and forced closures of house
churches are ongoing... More than 300 Christians have been arrested
since 2010, and dozens of church leaders and active community members
have reportedly been convicted of national security crimes in connection
with church activities, such as organizing prayer groups, proselytizing
and attending Christian seminars abroad.”
