London, Jun. 05 – Iranian authorities have stoned a man and a woman to death, according to a report that has surfaced in Persian-language websites.

The stoning was carried out in the middle of the night three weeks ago in a cemetery in the north-eastern city of Mashad, the report said.

The woman was identified as Mahboubeh Mohammadi.

Mahboubeh, who was a teacher, and her sister’s husband were accused of murdering her husband eight years ago.

The report said that her role in the murder was only discovered last year.

Iran Focus has not been able to independently confirm the stoning.
