Iran executes in public a serial ******* convicted in dozens of cases

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — An Iranian man convicted of ******* dozens of women over the past two decades has been ********* in public, the country’s state media reported on Wednesday.

The state-owned IRAN newspaper said Mohammad Ali Salamat was hanged after Iran’s Supreme Court confirmed his ****** sentence earlier in October. He was put to ****** at dawn Tuesday in a ********* in the western city of Hamedan.

Some 200 women had accused Salamat, a 43-year old who ran a pharmacy and a gym in the city, of *****. He is said to have committed the ******* over the past 20 years.

Reports by Iranian media said that in many of the cases, Salamat ****** his victims after proposing marriage or dating them. He allegedly provided some with ********* pills, which are ******** in Iran.

He was arrested in January in what was the biggest number of ***** case ever attributed to a single offender in Iran. Following his arrest, hundreds of people gathered at the city’s justice department, demanding capital punishment for Salamat.

U.N. experts said in September that Iran is among the world’s top countries that carry out executions. Increasing number of executions in Iran has prompted an outcry by human rights groups.

***** and adultery are among offences in Iran punishable by ******. In 2005, Iran publicly hanged a 24-year-old man who ****** and ******* 20 children. In 1997, authorities hanged a 28-year-old man for kidnapping, ******* and ******** nine ****** and women in Tehran.
