Razieh Ebrahimi was forced to become a child bride at 14 years of age, become a mother when she was only 15, and endure years of verbal and physical abuse from the man who married her. Ebrahimi killed her husband to escape the abuse when she was 17 -- and now she could be hanged as early as this week. Ebrahimi is facing execution even though international laws prohibit the death sentence for crimes committed by juveniles. Human rights lawyers around the world are calling for Iran to stop executions of juvenile offenders. Ebrahimi told reporters that her husband would use any excuse to verbally and physically attack her. It is obvious that this woman took desperate action to escape from abuse. Her husbands family has the right to grant a pardon to her. Please sign this petition to ask them to practice compassion and forgive Razieh Ebrahimi.
