An image that has circulated widely on social media falsely states that 15,000 protesters have been sentenced to death in Iran. That claim is not true, but has been amplified by major public figures.
People protest over the death of a woman who was detained by the morality police in downtown Tehran, Iran, on Wednesday.A false claim that Iran is planning to execute thousands of people has gone viral in the wake of the first death sentence for a protester tied to the ongoing demonstrations against the country’s clerical rulers over women’s rights.
There has been no evidence that 15,000 protestors have been sentenced to death. Two protestors had been sentenced to death as of Tuesday, though they can appeal, according to state news agencies. On Monday evening, Trudeau shared a post saying “Canada denounces the Iranian regime’s barbaric decision to impose the death penalty on nearly 15,000 protestors. These brave Iranians were fighting for their human rights — and we continue to stand united in support of them, and united against the regime’s heinous actions.” The post remained up for over 11 hours and was shared thousands of times before being deleted.
