Apparently, murder of a police officer is a crime punishable by death in Iran. But thanks to the way their laws are written, the victim’s family has the executive power to pardon the murderer and if they do, it’s treated like a pardon from a governor that override’s the court’s ruling to execute the wrong doer. Their country, their laws and certainly an interesting approach. Afterall, victim’s family are the ones who were affected by the crime, not the judge or jury and if they themselves forgive the murderer, whether as a result of him expressing remorse, or because they believe in second chances, or because they don’t believe in an eye for an eye which leaves the whole world blind approach, or because of whatever other reason, then it certainly makes more sense for them to have such executive power as opposed to an elected official in a government office.
An Iranian man by the name of Vahid Zare was found guilty of murdering a young police officer in the military service and was sentenced to death by hanging for it. He was taken to a scaffold used as a gallows in Mashad and the execution went through as planned, but as the platform underneath his feet was removed and he started to choke, a family member of his murder victim pardoned him.
This unexpected turn of events created confusion as nobody expected for that to happen but with pardon officially issued, the executioners used their own bodies to get Vahid Zare off the rope before it was too late.
